In class our teacher told us to write a letter to the principal about the things we want to change in the school. We had to use persuasive writing. My letter is about no homework. Do you want homework?
Welcome to my blog, I am a learner at Greymouth High School in Greymouth, New Zealand.

Persuasive Language
For Persuasive writing we have been learning language features. I have to include these in my letter to the principal. My letter to the principal is about homework. My argument is that we do not need homework.I will share my letter later.
- Exaggeration : worse or more important than it really is.
- Simile : using as or like
- Repetition : repeating the word over and over
- Emotion : show what you think about it through your feelings
- Expert advice : getting research on the topic
- Rhetorical question : a question that doesn’t need a answer
Basic Facts Programme
I am learning my stage six basic facts. This is what I have achieved so far. I have got one hundred percent in each column. I really enjoy my basic facts.

Adverisements
We are learning how to use persuasive writing in advertisement. In the persuasive writing we had to include a slang and a command. A command is telling someone that they have to do it. Our command is get the phones or this will happen to you. Slang is informal use of words put together. Our slang is the word chicks.
I hope you like our advertisement below.

Duck Shooting Animation
On Mondays we got taught how to make a stop motion animation on what we did it in the weekend. I've done a lot but I'm not finished yet because I've still got more to do. I think that making the stop motion animations is really fun and I want to do more.
