We read a story from Teen Ink about a softball player.
Work time on essays.
I talked about different things with different classes today, but we mostly focused on how to develop the essay to include sensory details, dialogue, and thoughts. The story we read had great sensory details and showed reflection. We discussed the author's motive for sharing this story with us. If you get a chance, please read the story. It is very well written.
