Show, Dont Tell Shelby County Schools秀别告诉谢尔比县学校.pptVIP

Now write a paragraph. Here is the situation. You are very hungry, your stomach growls. You rummage through the kitchen and find a new package of Oreos. Describe the experience of eating the cookie. Remember to tell this as part of a story. Here’s my version. I rummaged through the vast kitchen, my stomach complaining of its emptiness. Was there anything in this house to eat? Suddenly I spotted it. Pleasure made my hands tremble. The package of Oreos was as beautiful as rain is to a fireman. I quickly ripped the cellophane. The aroma of rich chocolate reached my senses. My mouth drooled. I twisted the cookie apart and licked the sugary, smooth filling. The icing was like butter turning slowly to cream in my mouth. Its sweetness was better than a warm blanket on a winter’s day. More paragraphs for practice. You are nervous because you are about to give a speech to all the fifth grade students at Mountain City Elementary. You are frightened because you encounter a wild animal in the woods near your home.
