Persuasive Texts for Lower Primary – Cut and Paste Worksheets

Understanding text structure is an essential part of learning any writing genre. When introducing persuasive writing to young students for the first time, it’s important to highlight the key structural features. In the early years, this includes:

• A clear opinion statement
• A series of reasons that support the opinion
• A concluding statement that sums up the argument

This set of six cut‑and‑paste persuasive writing worksheets has been carefully designed by our teacher team to help students explore and understand these features. Each worksheet includes an opinion, a collection of reasons, and a concluding statement that have been jumbled. Students are required to:

• Cut out all the parts of the persuasive text
• Read each piece closely
• Sort the opinion, reasons, and conclusion into a logical order
• Build the persuasive text by pasting the components onto a blank page

The pack contains the following age‑appropriate persuasive text examples:

• We Need Longer Playtime
