Day 95!

Good Tuesday to you all!

We will talk a little more today about the notes you took yesterday. Together we will redefine any terms that may have been confusing to you, and we will come up with examples.

Then, you will have an opportunity to work more on your free-write. You should be aiming to add sensory details and at least four examples of figurative language. Once you have finished (or feel that you have finished writing, make a copy of your free-write and share it with a partner (without highlights). Your partner will then read through what you have written and identify the sensory details and the figurative language (see if they get them all right)!

In addition, each partner is responsible for providing some feedback on the writing itself:

  • What is your partner doing well in his/her writing? 
  • How could they make it even better?
