Lesson 2 - To write a persuasive letter to a Member of Parliament.
Good morning everyone, in today's lesson you are going to write a letter to a Member of Parliament to persuade them to help the United Kingdom reduce their use of plastic.
In your letter you should try to include:
- Dear/ To ...
- Introduction (e.g. I am writing to persuade you to...)
- 3 reasons why we need to reduce plastic use (e.g. not biodegradable, ends up in the ocean)
- a concluding paragraph (overall, it is clear that...)
- rhetorical questions (You don't want innocent animals to be harmed do you?)
Below I have included an example letter and also a template for you to use if you choose. We can't wait to read or hear how you get on with this task!
