Why Kids Should not get paid for good grades at primary school!

Yay top grades and everything that's $500 this year. Aww bottom grades in most things, so I only got $25. What? That kid got $500! Hi, I'm Lucas and I'm going to persuade you why kids should not get paid for getting good grades.

My first reason is that people will get jealous of other people. This is because some people would be getting heaps of money and then buying cool stuff with the money. Then other kids that don't get good grades get jealous.

My second reason who is going to pay the students, the teachers? I don’t think so, they don’t get enough as it is. But if it was the principal we would not have all the fun school events like winter sports and swimming. Even if it was the city council our city would turn poor. Also, the city council would not be able to improve our city.

If kids got paid for getting good grades it would make New Zealand poor, make kids ungrateful. It would also make the city look like a pigsty and the drinking water would not be clean.

These are my reasons why students should not get paid for good grades at primary school.  Do you agree?

 

Writing this term we have been focusing on persuasive writing, this is my persuasive piece of writing about why children at Primary School should not get paid for getting good grades. I would appreciate some feedback. Do you agree?
