I’ve used these two PowerPoint slideshows in my Communicative Writing extension class. They seemed to work quite well to outline some approaches to opinion essays.
If you fancy trying them out, I’d be interested to hear what you think. They may give extra ideas/activities for the 2nd writing task in the Level3 Writing Course.
There are no ‘how to notes’ with the slideshows, but I think they are quite easy to follow - I allowed a lot of discussion and pair-work for students to talk about the points raised as the slideshows played.
