When you write a persuasive paragraph, remember the Oreo method:
But what does this all mean? On page 235 of your textbook, there is an excellent example of a persuasive paragraph. (Can you see how I've just used an emotive word to make you think that this paragraph is worth looking at?;)
I've broken the paragraph down into separate "oreo" parts. The questions in red are there to guide you and help you see WHY the writer included the information that they did. These are the sorts of questions I will be asking while marking your paragraphs. When you write your paragraph, you WILL NOT write these questions, but you should be answering them. To see how the paragraph itself looks, take a look at it in your textbook.

should students still in school be worried about the climate changes?
No they should not worry about the climate changes
many scientists had the ability to prove that climate change may not affect any person badly, maybe a small part but it wont be very affecting.
As well as I recently discovered at our school that about 70% students hope an affect of climate would occur so they could be absent for the next couple of days.
I think that nobody should ever be worried about the climate change since many scientist had already proved it. And most the people do think the same way as I saw a video about it and I checked the comments given were people actually supported my opinion. so their is nothing to be worried about. just take a risk and enjoy your life and you wont regret.

Should students still in school be worried about the climate changes?
- yes they should worry about the climate change.
why?
Because they should worry about their lives now and be worried about their future and the next generation and they should be aware of their climate issues because in the future they might be in positions to find solutions for such problems.
There might be different environmental clubs inside schools to raise awareness among students and they may participate in community work and support environment friendly acts. Leadership,community,schools and parents shall all join efforts and encourage children to play a positive role in protecting their environment.

QUESTION: should Students still in school be worried about climate change ?
ANSWER: well not really ! They should only know about climate change so they can know what to dress like,..... Etc.
And before i go on here's the oxford definition for climate change:
http://www.oxforddictionaries.com/definition/english/climate-change
REASON 1: they shouldn't worry because we live in a century where technology took over and we can predict/ know the up coming hurricanes/earthquakes so we can always be ready for any of those climate changes !!
REASON 2: since we can already predict what's going to happen with the climate,school officials and the government take actions to keep people (students) safer !! Since the country we live in (UAE) is capable of offering a safe environment since it is has potential material !! :D
CONCLUSION : climate change isn't an issue for students to worry about !! :D .. Sweeeeg :P

Should students be worried about climate change ?
Well,I think they should be worries because some extreme climates could affect health care specially in school because in school you move more and you expose your self to the weather more .for instance he student had P.E o. A vey hot summer day the student might faint and vice versa .
Another reason they should be worried about weather is that the weather controls the amount of clothes the student must wear to school .if a student forgot his jacket on a cold winter day ,the student might catch a cold .
So overall students should keep the climate an important factor in their lifes in school.

Should students be worried about climate change?
no, they shouldn't.
REASON 1: Weather scientists emphasized that most students should not worry about weather while they are in well-built schools like our school (vice versa is correct) :)
REASON 2: Scientist always give information about that day's weather so students should get ready and wear suitable clothes before going to school.
REASON 3: Students shouldn't worry about climate change and they have to worry about studying and their lessons.
Conclusion: I believe that students in school should not worry about climate change and they have to focus on studying and their future.

Should students still in school be worried about climate change?
Yes, student should worry about the climate changes.
During the day in harsh weather, students are not able to participate in certain activities. If they do not recognize the trouble they can be in, anyone can get injured.
People rely on the weather channels these days, but the climate can change after the forecasters predict. This can cause major trouble if everyone carelessly wanders around in extreme conditions thinking that the weather is fine.
In conclusion, students must be able to identify climate changes to stay safe at all costs.

QUESTION:should students in school still in school be worried about climate change?
ANSWER:not really because they only need it when they want to dress up.....Etc.
REASON 1: because of the new technologies they can predict what the weather will be like and since the country we're living in (UAE) has a climate that doesn't really changes during seasons we don't have to worry about it.
REASON 2:they don't really have to care about climate changes cause as students we are provided with uniforms that include sleeveless shirts and jackets so whenever we feel cold we can wear jackets and whenever we feel hot we can get off our jackets
so it wouldn't cause an impact on school students.
CONCLUSION: In my opinion we as students don't have to worry about climate changes......XD!! LoL <3
