How to read and write persuasive writing

How to read persuasive writing

Persuasive writing is another word for convince but used in a more grown up way that is more used in schools taught in English along with all the other words such as thesis, and good information. Think of persuasive writing as an opinion or trying to convince using lots of arguments with positive and negative effects.

How to write persuasive writing

Writing persuasive writing just using your ideas but like I said before using lots of arguments, good details, and the positive and negative effects about the topic your talking or writing about. Here are some examples on some topics using persuasive writing...

Should junk food be aloud in schools?

Positive:

1.) Kid’s that don’t have a lunch or snack to eat but have money to buy something.

Negative:

1.) Its bad for the student’s health and can harm the internal origins

Like the positive and negative effects that are used in these sentences are much like the details and examples that are used in a persuasive letter from your own point of view.

Positive:
Negative:

What angle must you have to make your ping pong ball or golf ball go at least 3 yards on a ping pong catapult?

What angle must you have to make your ping pong ball or golf ball at least 3 yards on a ping pong catapult? First you must know the definition of drag. The definition of drag is resistance to air. (Drag 1). With drag and the golf ball, you have to know do the dimples affect it the answer is yes the air current is affected around it.

(This picture shows the air currents around the balls.)

Even with dimples affecting the air bubble around the ball weight is also an issue because the wind might move it even if its light. And the thing that shows that put a piece of paper on the table on a windy day it moves and after that put a rock on the same table on the same day does it move no. so weight will effect this experiment.

You must also know about air resistance the difference of air resistance is that air resistance is falling object drag is the resistance of air not air resistance. The definition of air resistance is the action of friction that slows something moving through the air.(air resistance 1). The definition of drag and air resistance are similar but they are different too.

Volcanoes

-How volcanoes are formed
Volcanoes are usually formed around area on the earth where the tectonic plates are. The plates crack and magma comes flowing out through the crust. The magma hardens and forms layers. The layers then form a volcano.
-How lava is formed
Deep in the earth there is a mantle. The mantle melts and moves through thin pieces of the crust. The crust then releases hot ash and rock. After the hot ash and rock are through the magma comes out of cracks in the crust.
- Melting rocks
Extremely high pressure causes the mantle to melt. There are different types of magma. Such as: Mafic which is rich and dark lava, and. Felsic which is lava that consists of feldspars. Also intermediate. Mafic hardens into a dark igneous rock, Intermediate into a dark colored volcanic rock, and Felsic into a light gray hard rock.
-Volcanic Hazards
Volcanoes have a lot of hazards. First poisonous volcanic ash fills the air. Second Landslides form and they destroy structures. Then flowing lava can also destroy structures and kill people. Lastly the volcano can collapse.
-Types of volcanoes
There are many different types of volcanoes. The first type is a shield volcano. A shield volcano is a large volcano it has a broad summit and low sloping areas. Next is Cinder Cone volcano. A cinder cone has mounds of basaltic fragments, it carries liquid blobs of lava then they get spurt out and rain and form a cone shape. The last type is a strato volcano. They are built by multiple eruptions. They stand higher than cinder cones.
-Volcanoes form in different ways
Volcanoes erupt in different ways because it depends on what plate they form on. If a volcano is on a hot spot then the lava forms a chain. If the plates collide the lava tends to explode out. When the plates are separating the lava comes out smoother and it flows down.
-Can we predict when a volcano is going to erupt?
We can predict when a volcano is going to erupt. Before a volcano erupts smoke and ash come out of the volcano. So by that happening we know that lava is coming next. Scientists are beginning to use tools that can record these warnings. The problem is though that it is very hard to know exactly when the volcano is going to erupt.
- Preparedness for the future
Before we build structures we should think, is there a volcano nearby? Also people who live near a volcano should be educated about what a volcano hazards. There should be communication between scientist and the officials. Emergency plans should be thought out and agreed to.

The h1n1 virus is a virus that involves pigs. it started when humans came in contact with infected piggy's.the people then passed it on to other people. the h1n1 is very contagious and daingerous.the people who have it cant go to public places or they will spred it and the other people will get it. Another things is if u have it u cant go to work especully if you work at a restraunt or as a cook or you will put it in there food and they will get it.You can die from the H1N1 virus because if youre alergic to the the medication and you take it you will get swollen and youre trought will get swollen and wont be able to breath.The H1N1 virus is like the pleuge because it spred all over the united states and other places and affected peoples lives and killed alot of people in less than a year.

H1N1 (swine flu) is a strain of the flu that many people think comes from pigs. What usually happenes when you have the Swine Flu is that they get really sick and there is a posibility that if you have it you could die. You could die because you cant breathe because you are constantly coughing or throwing up. Some people say that the swine flu breakout in 2009 was similar to the Black Death. It was like the Black Death because it affected millions of people.

6. It spreads as a disease
and kills many people.

H1N1 is a virus that spreads and kills many people. It helps alot if you are sanitary because the virus spreads by pigs and if you are not clean the virus may get to you. H1N1 makes people very sick and some die.

H1N1 is a virus that spread from animals to human to more humans. It makes people sick,it can kill you , and makes you cautious to try andf stay healthy. Its mortality level is low because not many people hsv e died from it. It is similar to the bubonic plague because it makes people sick and it spread from creatures to human.

different is that when you have the swine flew.
what i think causes swine flew is pigs that they have
how it affects people that when people are around people and or pigs and you can die.
i think you can die from the swine flew.
the swine flew is like the black plague because its a huge virus and its contagus

The h1n1 virus is a flu that can kill you and is very hard to treat and people don't now where it comes from.One way to prevent the flu is to wash your hands a lot and get the vaccine to the flu.People may think that the flu comes from pigs because it is also called the swine flu which is another name for pigs.People can get fevers,other flu symptoms, or they could die.It would be horrible to die from the flu because there is so much that i didn't get to do and i would miss all my friends and family.The h1n1 virus is like the black plague in a way because it can and might kill you and you can have really bad symptoms to both.

trever:h1n1

2010-01-19T10:03:00.000-08:00

The h1n1 is a dangerous virus. it stated as a disease that infected pigs. When people came in contact with the infected pigs they got the virus.The infected people then passed it on to other people. the virus is very contagious so it passes to other people easily. The swine flu is like the black plague because people weren't prepared. Other similarities are it spread fast and killed many people.

the H1N1 flu is a flu virus that causes alot of people to get sick and some people die from the virus. The H1N1 flu other wise known as the swine flu comes from pigs, swine means pig. when u eat food made from pig, the pig could have had germes that cause th eflu, so when you eat thigs from pig that are sick you canget sick too meaning you can get the h1N1 flu. To prevent the flu you can get your shots and wash your hands. This flu causes people to die and you can barly do anything because the germes are eating you up inside.

H1N1 is a very terrible disease that is believed to come from pigs. that's why they call it the swine flu. it has all the symptoms of the flu only the swine flu is much harder to get rid of and is deadly. its already killed about 30,000 to 90,000 people in the USA. when it comes to how bad it is i would compare it to the black plague back in the 1300s. because the symptoms are so similar to the regular flu it was difficult to tell the difference between them. that's 1 of the reasons so many people died from this disease. currently there has been1 less reported cases of the swine flu but still there people that have it unfortunately

etc.
3. Who is at a higher risk of getting the flu?
Children and young adults
4. How does it spread? Is it airborne?
Spreads like a regular flu. can get it from a cough or sneeze
5. How dangerous is it?
Severity varies on different people.
6. How is it prevented?

Venn diagram

Bubonic Plague:
1. Back then they didn't have planes. If it were to travel far it would have to have been done by ship.
2. Wasn't enough info to prevent the plague
3. Everything you touched was contagious

Swine Flu:
1. This disease is spreadable by plane and ships. But most people use planes today
2.Not a lot of people have died compared to the Swine Flu
3. More people wash their hands . Not everything you touch is severely contagious

Both:
1. Both are spreadable
2. Both are caused by animals
3. Both have same symptoms

Paragraph that Mr. Smith made me do for no apparent reason::

The Swine flu and the Bubonic Plague are both alike and different. These are probably the two most epidemic diseases ever to spread. The Swine Flu is not as big as the Bubonic Plague but it probably would've been if people didn't know how to treat or prevent the flu. Both the diseases originated from animals.

The First Emperor of China

The emperor was a selfish, cruel, ruler. He had an obsession with death. The emperor started to build his tomb in witch he would spent
while past away. He forced people to build it. His entire obsession was paid off; he died even before the tomb was finished. The emperor was buried with beautiful jewelry. He also was buried with 6,000 Terra-Cotta soldiers. The soldiers were there to protect him in his after life. The jewels were there so that he would have money and to have riches as an emperor would.

In the two stories The First Emperor by Daniel Cohen and Digging Up the past by Helen Wieman Bledsoe share the same topic and that topic is about the Emperor's tomb.The main idea in the first selection is about the First Emperor and how he wanted power after he was dead. So thirty years before he died the made his tomb it was meant to be the spirt city.

In the second story Digging Up the past the main idea is about the excavation of the tomb and how they found over more than 6,000 soldiers and horses.

They compare because the stories both talk about the Emperor's tomb and how is it was made then what they found of the tomb.In the first story it is how the Emperor created his tomb.
In the second story it is about the excavation of the tomb and it was about his soldiers that were found.

The first emperor was a very powerful man who was
the founder of China. He was so powerful he order 700,000
people to build his tomb. This is the story of the first emperor
of China.

Ch'in Shih Huang Ti became emperor of China at the age of 13!
He started as a emperor of Ch"in. China was made out of states
at that time so the emperor declared himself as the emperor of China!
The name China even comes from the his name Ch'in!

The emperor became to get obsessed with his death. People have tried to kill him but they have all failed. If he died his family would have to be put to death too! So near the mountain of Li he started ordering 700,000 people to built his tomb! His tomb had 6,000 terra-coota soldiers and had traps so no one could touch his tomb

In March 1974 people dug up his tomb and found 4 pits of soldiers/vehicles! The forth pit was empty. The people tryed to put some terra-cotta soldiers back into pieces. Today people can walk on the tomb and watch all of the terra-cotta soldiers!

The two stories , "Diging up the past " by Helen W. Bledsoe and "The First Emperor" by Daniel Cohen . The both stories share the same information: the emperor and his tomb.
In the first selection they talk about Ch'in Shih Huang Ti the first emperor of China. He was very carfull in his moves the way he wouldn't alow anybody to know were he went or what palace
he was staying at. At a period of time and age the emperor disided to start building his tomb.

In the second selection "Diging up the past" the main idea is the tomb of Ch'in Shih Huang Ti . The tomb was originally founded by farmers. An excavation imediatlly started . They found an army of Terra Cotta soldiers (statues) .

Both sellections are compared with : the emperor, his tomb, and both of their cruelness toward the people of China.The emperor is the same in both selections, the tomb is were they buried him (the tomb was not finished by the time he died) and his cruelness. He was very cruel towards the people of China. He would kill anybody who revilled his were abouts.

I read two stories about the first emperor of China. Their titles are: "The First Emperor" by Daniel Cohen and "Digging up the Past" by Helen W. Bledsoe. The main idea of "The First Emperor" is the emperor was protective of himself. He had the Great Wall of China built to protect himself from the people in the north. He also didn't stay in one spot for very long so he could live longer.

The main idea of "Digging up the Past" is the emperor had an elaborate tomb. The emperor had a lot of people dig four pits and put terra-cotta soldiers and horses in three of them. They also buried him with jade and pearls.

Both stories are about the emperor. They both talk about the emperor and the tomb, but "The First Emperor" talks about the emperor more, and "Digging up the Past" talks about the tomb more.

Thank You Ma’am

If some body needs help, you should help them because that way people could help you. This young man has no body in his house and since he has no money he is stealing purses.

At the beginning a woman is walking around eleven o’clock then a boy ran up behind her & tries to snatch the woman’s purse. The boy falls down and the woman picks him up and shook him. He is scared and he wants the woman to turn him loose.

The face of the boy is dirty the woman takes the boy to her house and the boy washes his face. Then the woman asked him if there was a person on his house so the boy said “no”, so the woman fed him. Then the woman put the purse on the bed and went behind the screen she didn’t watched the boy. The boy didn’t take the purse. This shows that the boy already changed because the woman treated him like her sun and fed him.

The boy is sorry about what he did. Know that the boy has changed he is being nice and she told the woman if she needed somebody to go to the store. When the woman was about to close the door the boy said “Than you Ma’am. The boy never saw her again.

If somebody needs help, you should help them because that way people could help them.

nazaria's theme

2009-12-16T12:26:00.001-08:00

Nazaria’s theme I think the theme is that what you wish you want it ends up that you don’t even need it. I think that is the theme because in the story he wants more than he needs and at the end when he gets it he figures out that he doesn’t need it

The Fir Tree Essay - Jose

2009-12-16T12:12:00.000-08:00

In the story fir tree the lesson or theme is to be careful on what you wish for. In the story the little fir tree wishes to be a big fir tree like the other pine trees. Later on in the story he gets his wish and becomes a Christmas tree. In the end he gets burned and discovers that his wish wasn't a good one.

In the beginning he wants to be a big pine tree and wants to be cut down and be a christmas tree. Seasons pass and he gets taller and watches one of his pine tree friends get cut down and ship.

Later he grows big enough to get cut down and ship to become a christmas tree. He thinks everyone will hang out with the christmas tree and love him. But that is not true because later he does become a christmas tree, but he gets burn in the end. He dies getting his wish and discovers his wish was not the right one.

My ideas about the story is that be careful on what you wish for because later on you can end up having your wish, but you die out of it. Wishing is good, but you need to think twice on what you wish for.

In the story The fir tree there is a tree that starts of little he wants to be every tree where he lived because. They are tall he was little i think the theme of the story is that is that be happy with what you have to be your self.The tree evenually has what he wants but still he wants to be like another person when.

selene's theme

2009-12-16T12:04:00.000-08:00

the theme in the fir tree is about the up's and down's of this fir tree. For example when he was small and wanted to be big that was a down and when he was finally a desant size that was an up. when he wanted to go sailling the swallows told the tree that in the boat they carried tree's.These up's and down's from this fir tree is the message of the story. He onece had an up and a down at the same time it was when he got burned and shreded, he had a complished of being big, tall but he also got "killed".

The Treasure of Lemon Brown

2009-12-16T10:21:00.001-08:00

The Treasure of Lemon Brown by Walter Dean Myers teaches us treasure does not always equal money.
Lemon’s treasure was his son’s treasure. It was found on Jesse’s body when he was killed in the war.
It was not at all valuable, t was newspaper clippings and a harmonica that belonged to Lemonn, who would die for it. He beat up some guys who were looking for it.
Treasure does not equal money is an important lesson.
