Teach children how to write persuasively with this KS1 text types resource pack on persuasive writing. The resources are based on a model text persuading an adult in school to allow a pet dragon for class 2B, showing WAGOLL (what a good one looks like), with a planning sheet to support pupils to write their own persuasive letter.

This KS1 resource includes:

  • Model text - A letter that persuades - A letter to a teacher, trying to persuade them why the writer should have a pet dragon.
  • Persuasive writing sheet - A PDF containing success criteria that pupils can use to support their writing. It includes examples of present tense verbs and question sentences
  • Persuasion idea cards - A series of cards that have potential pets, including some that are real possibilities and others that are not, to inspire writing.
  • Persuasion writing plan - A worksheet to support pupils to plan and structure their writing.
  • Writing paper - A PDF sheet that pupils could use to present their work.

What is persuasive writing?

A persuasive text will argue a case from a particular viewpoint to encourage the reader or listener to have the same viewpoint. Examples of persuasive texts include letters about an issue or topic, tourist brochures, posters, book blurbs or job applications.
