SHOULD WE HAVE SPORTS EQUIPMENT IN THE PLAYGROUND OR NOT?

By Charlee

Act two

With a buddy create a persuasive pieces of writing on…

Should We Have Sports Equipment In The Playground?

Remember to…

Find your arguments ‘for’ or ‘against’

These agreements are your paragraph starter.

Use words like Firstly, Secondly..

Add details to your argument.

Don’t forget your introduction and summary to your persuasive writing.

Did you know that if we got new sports Equipment here at Tautoro School It will make Morning tea and lunch time way more fun for kids plus kids will not have to fight over who had what first.

Firstly, I think that if we got new sports equipment it will make our lunch breaks more fun and interesting how well lately people are saying they are really bored because there is nothing to do, but if we had sport equipment kids will have something to do. Added on to this, it is really fun for kids doing something.

Secondly, I believe that if we  use the equipment in the playground then we will play together. We will play together when we have something to play with and do. When we have sports stuff to play with like a rugby ball or a soccer ball we get along with each other. Getting along with each other on the park and on the fields means less bullying and fighting. Bullying and fighting over a ball or a rugby ball is wrong to do, fighting and bullying is bad. Don’t do it.

Lastly, I believe that sports stuff in the playground is cool and fun because everybody is playing with something and doing something together. Doing stuff together is more fun than bullying and fighting.

In summary, I believe that having sports stuff in the park is cool and fun. Isn’t that the kind of school you want or not? Like I said. “Should we have sports stuff in the park or not? say we should! who is with me!?”
