Good morning. I hope you are enjoying the gorgeous summer weather. Today I would like you to do some writing in the lab. 
Write about an interesting experience you have recently had. Make it come alive for your audience. What kinds of words help you achieve this goal?

Adjectives--appeal to the five senses

Verbs--use powerful verbs

In narrative writing, chronological order is commonly used, but is not mandatory. Think about the writing process as we discussed it in class. Spend time brainstorming. Include vocabulary brainstorming.
Set up a Word document with DS, including a header with your name, class and the date.
You will need to print your draft. Ask the lab assistant how to do this if you do not know.
