We started class by finishing Chapter 1 in To Kill A Mockingbird with several people acting out the actions.
We then wrote about a childhood memory (like Harper Lee does in Mockingbird).
We took notes on the levels of description and examples of each level (boring, ordinary, vivid and visionary).
We read Chapter 2 using Reader's Theatre.
For homework, go through the piece of writing you did in class and identify which level of description you were using.
Tomorrow everyone should bring their independant novel and their piece of writing.
We will continue working with levels of desription by identifing them in Mockingbird and revising our own writing to become more vivid.
