Check understanding
- Write an opinion piece that introduces the topic, states a clear opinion, and provides at least two reasons
- Use linking words (because, and, also, for example) to connect the opinion to supporting reasons
- End an opinion piece with a concluding statement that restates or reinforces the opinion
“Can your child write a persuasive piece — like arguing for a longer lunch break or why dogs are better pets than cats — with a clear viewpoint, organised reasons, and a conclusion?”
