We have been talking about persuasive writing in class recently and what it means to try and persuade someone to believe your side of a particular debate or argument. For example, if I make the statement, "All 4th graders should have to go to summer school before they can move to 5th grade", you might disagree with me. However, just like we talked about in class, just disagreeing with someone won't change their mind. You need to be able to make strong arguments that clearly explain why you feel a certain way. Your assignment today is to make a good argument either supporting or disagreeing with the following statement: "Students should be required to eat a green vegetable at lunch everyday when they are in school".
Remember, just saying "NO, I don't think that is right" does not make a good argument. Tell me why you agree or disagree.
