Saving Wilbur - Persuasive Writing Planner

Use this Clicker Board Set to make notes for planning a persuasive letter to a character from the novel "Charlotte's Web" by E B White.

Plan out ideas to persuade Mr Arable to spare the life of Wilbur, the smallest of a litter of piglets.

Add words and phrases to plan out what the problem is (Wilbur is going to be killed), why this is a problem (reasons why Wilbur must not be killed), how any objections from Mr Arable (such as time/cost) might be resolved, and a powerful closing statement to sum up the persuasion.

Children can use the Word Bank "Saving Wilbur – Persuasive Writing Frame" to help them to structure their writing. For other Clicker resources to support work on this novel, search for Charlotte's Web on LearningGrids.
