Persuasive Writing - It is Wrong to Fight

WALT Write a Persuasive Writing

I agree that It is wrong to fight and it is a negative way to solve things
___________________________________________________________________________________________

My most important reason is that it is a very negative solution to most problems. Physical contact or words could harm people mentally and physically causing the insult to expand or be isolated within the victim’s mind. Media is a commonly used thing today as well as phones, so an example could be cyberbullying which could be sent all around the world, that’s how it expands to being a viral situation. Now the world knows something new and bad things start to happen, police would be defensive and try to protect you but does that always work? That’s why it’s wrong to fight.     
___________________________________________________________________________________________

I think that there are people who fight back and get injured even more, same with the words because they could be sent verbally or in person. And some people just don’t want to talk about it. For example, fighting would be a way to relieve stress or to show off as an intimidating person, which is a bad reputation to present yourself.
___________________________________________________________________________________________

Relationship with people would be low and people would become more anti social towards each other. We have suspicion about the people we see/meet and there are times when people could be pulled into things such as fighting. You may be arguing for someone else or fighting in there place to protect them, but now the problem is bigger. The person you just protected would either fight with you or run away, if he fought the man would be beat and left alone or  sent to the police, that or they might beat you both. If he/her ran, the innocent person who protected him/her may be beaten up, killed, hurt badly or sent running away. That’s not what we want the world where everyone's afraid of everyone because our earth wouldn’t be called home sweet home anymore.
___________________________________________________________________________________________

What do I think about this piece of persuasive writing?

It’s a stupid thing to do and it’s smart. I really want to persuade the audience into thinking that it is bad/wrong to fight, we want peace.

Me and Lj don’t have an Ipad. We both use the internet, We both spend the entire day on our devices. Lj doesn’t have a phone or playstation compared to me. Lj spends 3 more hours on the internet than me.
  • Analyse and compare your graph with a partner and discuss the differences between your graphs.

Personal Reflection Question
  • What is your viewpoint about the role of digital media and how these digital media plays a big part in your life today? In other words, how will digital media impact (influence) on your life in the future? Will this be positive or negative? Why?
I don’t think the future would be the active type, seeing how we are today anyways/ sort of. Though I can imagine the world being very social online but anti social in person. We would either create a lot of relationships or an online war, it all depends.

Persuasive Writing - It's Okay to be Different

It’s Okay to be Different
____________________________________________________________________________________________
Intro

In my opinion being different is okay and that we should show who we really are
____________________________________________________________________________________________

My most important reason is that people should not be embarrassed about being different, because being different is normal and that you shouldn’t try to be like everybody else. I think that when you are different it shows that you are unique and it makes you an interesting person out of other people.
For example, what if someone wanted to be exactly like you when they can’t, when they try to do what you do, when they try to think, see, feel what you feel, but they can’t. Because they are somebody with their own things, feelings, thoughts that nobody can do but you, because you are the only you.
____________________________________________________________________________________________

It’s the same with twins, they may look the same, and could probably think the same, but what about  the other things. Twins can be the complete opposite of each other that they might not even look same, or  like what the other likes. Because they’re different. Some twins actually hate  each  other for being the same, they try so hard to be different that they might even do something they won’t think the other would imagine. Now, just imagine that but all around the world. You will think, feel, do, change like everybody else, so much that everybody hates each other because if one person is angry, everybody is angry for the same reason.
____________________________________________________________________________________________

If a number, letter, character, species or universe is different, then imagine that you are one of those things. In one of those 5 subjects I gave you, there are countless things that you could’ve possibly been. Like a planet out of a trillion or a number out of various one’s in other cultures. See, you could mean the same thing but be completely different, so different that others would want to learn about you.    
____________________________________________________________________________________________

I strongly believe that when somebody else is different or trying to be like you then they really should just be themselves, because not everyone want’s to be
the boring and most predictable person, that’s just a disappointing way to describe life as being interesting.
____________________________________________________________________________________________
What do I think about this piece of persuasive writing? I like it, it focuses mainly on what I’m trying to debate and it makes the statement, opinions, reasons and examples stand out.
