Using an index to find information quickly

How to use the contents page to research effectively

The table of contents lists the chapters and other main parts of the book.  It is helpful because it gives you a general idea about the book so you know which chapters apply to your research.  Below is an example from a book about the moon.

This is what we've been working on for the past few weeks, I thought this was quite easy.

This is my persuasive text on Uniform

Why should we wear uniform?!

Why should we wear uniform? There is no point! What if we dirty our uniforms and it’s not clean by the next day? What if we leave it somewhere else? We should just wear mufti to make everyone’s life easier.

Students shouldn't have to wear uniform because they should be able to express themselves and choose what to wear. Also, they should be able to wear what they want and be free to wear what they want. They should also be able to share their personalities with their classmates and family members. This is why I think students should not wear uniforms.

Making our lives easier would be amazing. I wouldn’t have to worry about my uniform being clean all the time and I could just wear anything I’d like. I could be cool in the summer and nice and warm for winter!

I do not agree because some parents can’t afford uniform and the students might only wear half of their uniform which is basically a waste of time. If we wear mufti it would save a lot of money and time. Also some uniforms can be uncomfortable and it’s unfair to take away the freedom  to wear what is comfortable for them.

Making changes to the school dress code will be a good start. As a result of having mufti brought to the schools needs, we could have a more relaxed and comfortable class and school environment. Think about changing the dress code today!
