Day One--Tuesday, Sept 7

It was great to meet you today.  I promise I'll have names down before the end of the week.  Your homework is to complete your piece of writing with tons of sensory details.  I will collect your notebooks tomorrow as you enter the classroom!  Remember if you feel like you are telling--slow it down and paint the picture in your mind so you can really show your readers how it felt! Here's the story about Jack I shared in class show don't tell.  Other helpful advice is to use action verbs find some here or some sensory details here.
