Convince me why you should have my last Rolo?
Children in Year 6, have been currently exploring persuasive devices and techniques to use in their writing. As a stimulus, we got the children to persuade their class teacher to give them their last Rolo, based on the famous Rolo advert as a hook. These techniques include:
- Emotive language
- Rhetorical questions and repetition
- Exaggeration and hyperbole
- Flattery
- Veiled threats
- Imperatives and calls for action
- Appeals to logic or reason
- Criticising the opposite point of view
