LA – Homework Cover #32

A Description In order to do your homework 32, you need your textbook (Anthology), read and follow some important steps. See your textbook (pp. 52 - 53). First, read the Student Writing Model, “By the Sea”.  Observe the characteristics of a good description: beginning, imagery, similes, details and ending.  Understand those five elements in a description in order to make a description of your own. Second, think of a place (your school, neighborhood or any place you have been before, a place that you remember well). Have or take a picture of the place (or places) and attach it to your homework assignment (take a picture of the place, print and attach it). Third, on a piece of paper, outline information about it. (Outline = sketch out, make a draft, give an idea of it, summarize it in a few steps). Sketch out the whole description before you write the final draft/version. Finally, on another piece of paper, write a clear description of the place. However, consider the following: write five short paragraphs. Do your work as the following: (Paragraph 1) beginning. (Paragraph 2) imagery. (Paragraph 3) similes. (Paragraph 4) details. (Paragraph 5) ending.
