Preparing to be persuasive

Learning objective: to create persuasive arguments
Success criteria:
1. I can use a range of persuasive vocabulary and phrases
2. I can share ideas respectfully with my peers on a range of topics
3. I can develop my ideas into powerful, persuasive paragraphs

Do now:
Choose three words in the image below that you have never used before, or not very often.  I will have printed versions on each table/group of desks.  Look up their meaning and then create your own sentences using each word.  Your sentences then need to be added to this blog post in the comments section.
