LI: to write a persuasive speech.
This week for writing we had to make a persuasive speech (exposition) about who would win a fight between a Manticore or an Asian dragon, I think that the Asian dragon would win the fight becuase it has lots more abilities than the Manticore, click this to see all the powers the Asian dragon has.
If you don't agree with me read my exposition above. After we all made our expositions we had a debate, a debate is something when two people/groups don't agree with each other, so they try to persuade people into thinking the same way as them, they then have to let the public decide.
This week I learned by listening to the instruction, by working hard and by being focused on my work. Also sadly the Manticore team won the debate.
I am a Year 8 student at Panmure Bridge School in Auckland, NZ. I am in Learning Space 2 and my teachers are Mrs Anderson and Mrs Fisi'iahi.

Leviathan vs Kraken
LI: to write an exposition (persuasive text).
This week for writing we had to right an exposition about witch is the most devious ( leprechaun or a Jinn/Genie) or who's the most dangerous ( Leviathan or Kraken). I wrote an exposition about witch is the most dangerous, I think that the leviathan is more dangerous, if you don't believe me click this and see what the leviathan can do.
I had to make a exposition to make people believe or agree with my opinion, I had to use O.R.E.O (Opinion, Reasons, Explanation and another opinion to back up the first opinion), we also had to use three causal factors and two statements.
After that I had to make a flip grid (video) with me saying my exposition. If you don't know what flip grid is, its a site that people can use to make videos about. This week for writing I learned by working hard, by being focused on my work and by listening to the instructions.

Persuasive Writing
LI: to write a persuasive argument.
This week for writing we learned to make a exposition. If you don't know what the structure and language features are look at my last writing blog. With the exposition we had to make a google slides with pictures that link with the exposition.
After that we needed to read out our exposition, while recording our google slides. We had to record this on screen castify. Screen castify is a site to record your tab or your face. if you want to try it out click this link.
Today I learned by writing the exposition, making the slides with pictures in each slide and then recording it while reading out my exposition. I also learned by listening to the instructions, by working hard and by focusing on my work.

Persuasive Writing
LI: to identify the structure and language features of a persuasive text.
This week for writing we learnt about expositions (a persuasive text). We also learned the structure and language features of an exposition. The language features of a exposition is O.R.E.O. I really like the structure because I think that oreo's are really tasty.
We also learned about the language features of a exposition. The language features of an exposition is emotive words, affect or causing words and simple present (infinitive tense) words. Emotive words: words that make people feel emotions. Affect or causing words: Words that affect people or cause people to do this or affect people. Simple present (infinitive tense) words: These are words that are not used in the past or in the future, its put in the present.
Also the acronym O.R.E.O stands for opinion, reasons, explanations and opinion again to support the first opinion. If you want to persuade someone to agree with your opinion use an exposition. We also went onto the google document that Mr Wong sent us, there is a exposition and we had to highlight affect or causing words, emotive words and simple present (infinitive tense) words in different colors, we had to highlight affect or causing words in blue, we had to highlight emotive words in red and we had to highlight simple present (infinitive tense) words in yellow. There is also a spot to copy and paste the exposition.
Today I learned by listening to the instructions, working hard and by being focused on my work. We also learned by going onto the google document.
