  4. Depressing • 8-10 sentences long, describe the setting • Sensory imagery Riding in my car on the way to Nana's house, it seemed as if they sky was weeping because of the loss of the sun’s smile. “Woosh,woosh,” my windshield wipers rhythmically dried the rain away, like tissue applied to a tear stained face. The dark gray of the sky reminded me of the somber mourning clothes worn by the congregation at a funeral. Even the sky seemed to moan and groan with lamentation of some unimaginable wrong. What a gloomy day, not exactly as I had pictured beginning my first day of Thanksgiving Vacation. Instead of focusing on the all the delicious food that was awaiting me, I could only think that this was the first Thanksgiving I would celebrate without my cousin Mike. He had enlisted in the Army earlier that year and was stationed in some far off foreign land. I guess the weather outside reflected my sorrow at his absence.

  5. Homework/Independent Work • Think of a setting: where? When? • Decide on a mood: celebratory, depressed, excited, furious, angry. • Create a sensory chart. • Create a figurative language chart. • Brainstorm ideas/record in charts • Write 8-10 sentences.
