Persuasive Writing

In Te Maunga we have been working together and collaborating on one document while writing. We absolutely LOVED it!

I think I did well with commenting and giving feedback on the piece of writing under me.

I could have done better with putting more descriptive words into my writing

Here is my writing:

 I believe that learning on the chromebooks is good for us because It is good for evidencing with your strategies and work you are proud of, you can finish off work at home and you can also record yourself on it.

Firstly, having chromebooks is important for children in the class to learn new facts by searching them up on the internet rather than having to look through one book. Or two! It is also good for the future because you might get into University or even get a job as an office worker. You will easily be able to use your skills of typing and using different tools.

Secondly, evidencing is GREAT if you are proud of some work . You can use different tools to share it with them. If someone was proud of their explain everything, they could take a snapshot and put it on a google slide, a doc, a sheet, a google form or a google drawing.


Thirdly, you can finish off your learning or work at home. If someone needed to write the rest of a story they could do it at home on their chromebook or log in from a different computer.

By the way, I wouldn’t be persuading you in this story if it wasn’t for this Chromebook!

Lastly, we can record our voices on vocaroo, voice recorder, speak pipe and morphvox. If someone was reading , they wouldn’t be able to give some evidence on a book so you could obviously record your voice for feedback on a chromebook.

Those were all my reasons why I think self directed learning is the best!
So do you really want to put everyone’s learning on the line?
I didn’t think so.

Writing

In Te Maunga we have been learning about how to write a persuasive. It had to be about if learning on the chrome is good or not.

I did well with putting paragraphs in between the reasons and examples.
I could have done better with saying a better example and writing a bigger story.

Here is my story⇩⇩⇩

Why learning on the Chromebooks is good

I believe that learning on Chromebooks is good for us because…

if we want to give feedback to our teacher we can email them a google slide doc and more of our evidence. If someone was proud of their explain everything, they could take a snapshot and put it on a google slide. The person could email it to their teacher and do some other work.

Secondly, People can finish off their work at home. Some people can sign in to their chromebook and others just bring theirs home. If a kid wanted to finish off their writing, they can just do it at home.

Lastly, chromebooks are GREAT with recording on.If we were reading we couldn’t give some evidence on a book so chromebooks can record your voice while you are reading or spelling so that would help you ALOT. That is why learning on the chromebooks is the best!

So do you think learning on the Chromebooks is good?
