Ideas for Term 2: Be persuasive

Let’s try this one more time! I gave you can opportunity to give ideas of what you’re interested in learning about for term 2.  Many issues were brought forward without suggested solutions.

• What I need to know is what issues are important to you?
• What skills do you want to develop?

NOT

• Way to get out of writing, or
• Let’s go on a field trip! (without being specific)

So, I will help you with the formatting.  Your response will look similar to a debate format of claim, warrant, impact or point, proof, comment:

First line (interest, skill or issue):

• I am interested in learning about…,
• I really enjoy (skill e.g., writing, or performing, or computers, etc..)
• I am passionate about this issue (environment, bullying, etc…)

Second line (suggestion/solution):

• ” I would like to”, or “I think we should” (be specific)

Third line (impact)

• This would help me build confidence…
• I would be very engaged in this activity…
• It would allow us to make a difference in the community…
