Persuasive Letter Writing

For writing this week we were required to write a persuasive letter too persuade our reader why we should/shouldn't have fitness. My reader was intended to be Mrs Shehata the year 8 dean, so I wrote a letter to her this is my letter:

Dear Mrs Shehata,

I am Thomas and I am writing to inform you that I think that fitness is a great thing to have, although I do think it is a bit harsh and it is a bit boring. It may be fun to some people but not all. Some people find it boring and not all that fun so they don’t contribute. I was thinking that if it were more fun people would want to do it properly rather than faking participation. It is good for you to exercise but just because it is good for your body doesn’t mean it can’t be fun.

Since fitness is good for me I don’t usually complain but I too find it a bit boring and I see a lot of cheaters. Especially boys since some boys are more immature than others. Some people always overtake or don’t do it and hide behind the group, this is a problem because it is unfair on everyone else who is doing what their supposed to. This problem is enlarged by the fact that they only occasionally get punished and get away easily with what they want. This is an ongoing problem and it gets worse every week with more and more people do the wrong thing.

Yours sincerely

Thomas Woermann

  1. Hi Thomas

    Can you fix this so that your letter isn't running off the page? I bet your audience would love to read your persuasive writing.

    Could you include a follow up now that you have gotten Mrs Shehata's reply? Maybe you could write a new post explaining how it felt to get a letter back or share a copy of the notes she gave you?
