Happy Friday! August 16, 2013 Turn to page 75 in your Writer’s Notebook. Begin on the next line, make sure you date your entry. Think about a setting you enjoy. Now, describe this setting in great detail using lots of adjectives, but don’t tell where or what the setting is. Let’s see if we can guess by your description! At least 1 paragraph (5 sentences).
August 16, 2013 The place I enjoy is a very peaceful place that has a relaxing atmosphere. I can look up into the blue sky dotted with the puffy, white cumulus clouds. I admire the clouds as they dance across the sky like a skilled ballet dancer. The water beneath me feels cool and crisp that breaks the day’s heat. The breeze ruffles the decorative flowers planted nearby.
