A Persuasive Writing Planning Template Pack for Upper Primary Students

As teachers, we know that students have a tendency to dive into a piece of writing before they have completed the necessary planning. While this enthusiasm is encouraging, the result of inadequate planning is usually a text that lacks cohesion and is too simplistic in its nature.

Careful planning is one of the most effective ways to strengthen students’ writing. That’s why Teach Starter has created this persuasive writing planning template pack perfect for use by upper primary students! The resource includes five individual templates that students can use to thoroughly plan a piece of persuasive writing. These include:

  • Text Overview Planner
  • Argument Paragraphs Planners (x 3)
  • Persuasive Devices Planner

The argument paragraph planners are of particular value as they allow students to carefully plan each argument they intend to include using the PEEL technique (Point, Evidence, Explanation, Link). Similarly, the planning sheet to help students generate and choose persuasive devices such as emotive language, rhetorical questions and high‑modality vocabulary helps ensure these key features find their way into the students’ completed texts.

Strengthen Student Writing with This Persuasive Text Template Pack

As previously mentioned, using this persuasive text template pack will help your students produce more structured and cohesive writing by following a clear, step‑by‑step planning process. Here how using this resource will help your students to uplevel their writing:

  • Planning using the PEEL paragraph structure will help your students to build logical, well‑supported paragraphs.
  • Selecting persuasive devices will elevate your students’ writing as they appeal to and engage their audience.
  • Organising their ideas prior to writing will enhance clarity, improve flow and lead to more supported arguments.

This resource will help your students gain confidence with their persuasive writing by developing a comprehensive plan prior to writing.
