Plan a Poster That Persuades Kids to Read More

Let your child pick a side they truly believe, since real opinions make stronger reasons. Read the model together, fill the planner with short notes, then write the draft on lined paper and check that each reason has an example.

Read a made-up model poster about drinking water, then plan a poster that gets kids to read more with 3 reasons. To persuade is to get someone to agree with your opinion. The directions on the page read: Read the topic and the model. Then, write a headline. Then, draw a picture in the picture box. Then, write 3 reasons, one on each line. Then, write what to do now. Then, use your plan to write your draft on lined paper.

Yes, both. We made it for 3rd Grade opinion writing, and the page works the same whether it lands on a kitchen table or a center rotation. At home, most families go through it together and talk the answers out loud, and that talking is where most of the learning happens with writing opinion paragraphs. In class it runs well as independent work while you pull a small group. Print one copy or thirty, whichever the day needs.

An opinion sentence, two or three reasons, an example for each reason and a closing sentence that says the opinion again. The planners give a box for each part, so children fill in short notes before they draft (W.3.1).

A hook is a first sentence that grabs the reader, like a question or a surprising fact. One planner asks for two hook tries, a question and a fact, and two closing tries, so your child can pick the stronger one.

Yes. A letter to the principal and a poster both try to get the reader to agree. The letter planner has a greeting, the change you want, two reasons with examples, a polite closing and a signature. The poster planner has a headline, a picture and three reasons.

5 of the 22 sheets have an answer key. The planners and open writing pages have none, since each child writes their own opinion. Check that every reason answers why and that the closing restates the opinion.
