Improving Student Literacy: High Modality Terms

Creating a quality piece of persuasive writing involves the use of terms that convey 'degrees of intensity'. Staff at Elderslie have developed a grid of 'high modality terms' that students can use to produce quality persuasive texts in every subject. It can be viewed here and downloaded for use in the classroom and at home.
