Students shared their paragraphs today and we talked about "showing" not "telling," in their writing.  I then gave them the following paragraph to re-write changing the boring words that are in red.


You are a middle school student.  Essay in one hand, you go to class.  “I’m done!” You smile.  The teacher takes the essay out of your hands and throws it away.  She says, “It’s a day late!”  You look at your hard work.  The teacher didn’t look at it!  The No Late Homework Policy is bad.


DOL Test #6 tomorrow.
