Language for a Balanced Argument

Year 5, Year 6

Help your students develop critical thinking with this comprehensive set of resources on balanced arguments. The pack introduces pupils to the key features of balanced writing: being neutral, respectful and evidence-based. Through engaging PowerPoints, supportive word banks and scaffolded tasks, children learn how to weigh up both sides of an issue without slipping into persuasion. They’ll practise using phrases such as “Research suggests that…” and “It’s important to consider…”, explore how statistics can strengthen a point and apply their skills in structured writing tasks. Perfect for guiding learners towards clear, fair and well-reasoned argument writing.
