Opinion Writing: Give Two Reasons
Name:
Date:
Today I am practising: organizing two different reasons for one opinion
1
Write one opinion sentence.
2
Write a first reason that supports it.
3
Write a different second reason.
4
Draw a small clue for reason one.
5
Number your two reasons 1 and 2.
6
Tell an adult how both reasons support your opinion.
- Brainstorm orally first and record two distinct ideas, not the same reason in new words.
- Let the child draw or dictate a reason before writing it independently.
- Read the main opinion before each reason to check that it still fits.
