Week 3 Let's Write!

Autumn is an amazing time of year in Minnesota. What are some of your favorite features of fall? Do your best to be specific and descriptive. (e.g. "Our neighbor's maple tree explodes in fiery red during autumn," is more interesting than, "I like the colorful leaves.") I look forward to reading your great ideas!

Students:

  1. Please write your answer in complete sentences using correct capitalization and punctuation.
  2. You may find it easier to write your ideas in a Word document and then paste them into a comment on this blog.
  3. Be sure to include your first name ONLY and your homeroom number (e.g. J7) before publishing your comment.

Challenge! (This is an optional activity for students who wish to stretch their writing muscles further.) Write a poem about autumn in any style you like.

Comments must be posted no later than 8:00 A.M. Monday, October 1, to receive full credit.
