Persuasive Writing Audioboo

We are studying the language of persuasive writing in class. We practised using language that links our reasons for and against an idea. We used words such as "however" and "conversely" and phrases such as "On the other hand".
Can you think of other words we could use?

Our Community Actions

On Wednesday, some of the Middles went to the Avenue Community House and delivered and performed our Inquiry actions that we had completed at school.
Some of us presented food and money that we raised at school to the Avenue staff members.
They were extremely surprised and happy to see what we had done.
We also met a little buddy when we visited the child care centre.

Overall we had a great time learning about and helping the community.

Problem Based Learning and the Community

Middle S is well underway with their Actions to address the problems they identified for their chosen community group. Here we are working hard in the planning and creating stage:

Digital Art

Middle S flexed their creative muscles recently, when they delved into the world of digital art, using software programs to create their own art works or with a partner.
Some of the programs we used include: Toon Doos, Tux Paint, KerPoof and Mr Picasso Head
