Order in the court…I mean the classroom! The judge and the jury members turn this lesson into a mock trail! Students are put to the test as they read their persuasive paper in front of the court! This lesson is a creative and unique way to teach your students about persuasive writing…while having a little fun in the process!

Did I mention this writing fun is correlated to common core? :)

File includes: detailed directions, colorful anchor charts, common core standards, peer editing checklist, teacher rubric, awards, colorful faces (persuasive paddles!) to print for the jury members, a graphic organizer, and ideas for how to turn your classroom into a courthouse for this writing lesson!
