Your next writing task is to complete a piece of descriptive writing, which is writing that appeals to the five senses. It should not be too hard to choose a topic, since you can describe most of anything. I would suggest that you try to get as many different pieces of sensory information into your draft: sight, smell, taste, touch, and sound, for example.
It should also be easy for you to organize this essay. Perhaps you will have a paragraph about each of the senses, or maybe a paragraph about each different aspect of whatever you choose to describe.
Some descriptive writing is about an event, and the author makes sure everything is described well so readers can feel like they are there with them. I'm sure some of you enjoy this about your favorite authors.
Try your best to be creative and make the reader feel like he or she is there with you seeing, hearing, and feeling what you are writing about.
Good Examples of Descriptive Writing:
"H's Hickory Chips"

'64 Caprice by Josh Duke
A Walk in the Woods by LaDreika Kelly
The Beach by Myles Shepley
A Typical Day in My Neighborhood by Michelle Nash
Christmas by Kaneelvis Smith
Independence Day by Ravente Nowell
You will receive a 100 for having a draft that is two double-spaced pages of 12-point Times New Roman. Instead of posting your rough drafts, you should put them in my drop box, and I will print them for you. Failure to have a rough draft on the 7th will result in you getting a late grade for the draft as well as the editing exercise we will complete on that day. Having a rough draft on time will ensure that you receive highest grade you deserve for your work.
