Persuasive writing - Green eggs and ham are bad to eat.

Our learners did some persuasive writing about why green eggs and ham would be bad for us.  We used Dr Seuss's book Green Eggs and Ham as our provocation.  We made meaning by starting our sentences in different ways and adding our own voice to suit the purpose. 

Firstly green eggs and ham are bad to eat.  Secondly I do not like them.  Thirdly they are cold to eat. Sam said I do not like green eggs and ham.

By Eleanor

First green eggs and ham are yucky.  Secondly they taste like leaves.  Thirdly I don’t like them.  Next because they are disgusting.  I think have to go to the doctor.  They are going to make me sick.  I would get a sore tummy if I ate green eggs and ham.  

By Taylor

First they are bad because they are disgusting and because they are yuck and they are yellow in real life.  If I eat green eggs and ham I won’t like it.  It will be yucky.  I would vomit.  I won’t eat it forever.  My tummy would feel bad.

Luigi came to school.  He came to me today.  Luigi came to hub 5.  Luigi flew.  Luigi is black and white and blue and grey.  He sounds like a squeaky.  He is going up and down his stick.

Yesterday Luigi came to Hub 5.  Luigi chirped in his cage.  He ate his food.  I like Luigi because he is blue.  

By Mikayla

Luigi came yesterday to Hub 5.  We sat in a circle.  He jumped in his cage.   

By Zara

Luigi came to school because Mrs Freddy wanted us to meet him.  Mrs Freddy took Luigi around the room.  He was very cute.  Luigi jumped to his traffic light.  Luigi made sure his feathers were in the right place.  Luigi is special because he is as blue as the sky. Luigi sounds like a singing bird.  Luigi looks like a baby bird.  But Luigi is not a baby bird he is a teenager bird.

By Mishara

Luigi sounds like a squeaky toy.  Luigi is black white blue and grey.  He is special because of his colour.  Luigi is cleaning himself.

By Anton

Luigi came to school and he came today.  Mrs Freddy wanted us to meet him because she thought that we might be glad.  He was in Hub 5 / 6.  He was jumping in his cage.  He was swinging.  He is a boy because Mrs Freddy said.  Luigi is as blue as the sea.  He is singing so sweetly.  His colour is special.  He is special because he can fly.  He has a treat and a sharp beak.

By Lucy

Luigi was flying and he was jumping around in his cage.  He is cute because he is blue.  He was walking side to side.  Luigi is black white blue and grey.  He has wings to fly.  Luigi uses his swing to sharpen his nails.  He is as blue as the sky.  Luigi is blue like my Stonefields top.
