Persuasive Writing - Review What are some revision tips that we have used before, which will help us for our persuasive essays

Revising our drafts Transition Words? – What are transition words? – Ex. Then, place the dropper above the coin. For example, it should look like a …. Therefore, 10 drops can fit on…. Editing – Where do the commas go?

Revising our drafts Voice – Which shows more confidence? I think video games are bad Vs. Students should not play video games Which voice did you use?

Revising our drafts Voice – What is the difference? Playing the extremely violent video game Call of Duty creates psychopathic kids that will go on a rampage and kill everyone in the school. The action packed game Call of Duty allows the gamer to create and develop complex strategies, while taking into consideration the consequences of a ill thought of plan. These strategies could then be applied into the classroom as students weigh the pro and cons of their study choices.

Revising our drafts Picture + Caption – Look at your pictures you included What is this paragraph about? Does this Picture help? Why? Does the caption explain the picture?
