Education World: How to Blog With Young Students - 0 views

  •  
    I think that blogging is a good tool in the elementary education classroom because it can be used as an activity for them.  These days, students are learning about the internet since it is a main source used in the classroom, so blogging gets them familiar with using the internet.  This article also states that it helps students write better, since they will have a real audience that sees their journals.

Persuasive Writing | Reading Rockets - 0 views

  • How to teach persuasive writing Have students listen to or read examples of persuasive writing. Together, listen and look for words, phrases and techniques that helped the writer persuade the listener. Brainstorm something that is important to an individual child or the group. Is it extra recess? Another chapter of the read aloud? The potential closing of a library? The more authentic the issue, the more passionately your students will write. Once the important privilege is chosen, have the child (or class) start to list reasons why they should be allowed this privilege. "Just because," and "because I like it" should not be considered valid reasons. Students can work together to generate at least three good reasons to support an argument. This list of persuasive words (44K PDF)* and phrases from the site Teaching Ideas may help get students started. Have students do some research to gather facts or examples that support their reasons. Have students summarize their position.
