Today we began our fiction writing day by doing an exercise that pushed our descriptions of characters to a new level. We talked about making sure to stay specific in our description in an attempt to better control the reader's interpretation. Next, I checked in grammar homework and called up groups individually to review and ask questions. While I did this, the rest of the class continued to work on their first story start. We ended class by sharing strong sentences in our writing.
