Your homework for the weekend once again focuses on developing your ability to utilise descriptive language that allows you to work on showing rather than telling.
For this writing task, you need to choose a member of your family (this can include a pet if you think it would be easier to write about) and write a piece of prose that invites the audience to develop a clear picture in their mind of the individual. You don't have to mention his/her name but you do need to work on appealing to the senses of the reader. Try to be creative in your description by utilising emotive language, similies, metaphors, personification, etc.
As with the previous writing task, I do not want you to go beyond 1000 words but at the same time, I do not expect you to all reach 1000 words.
Please make sure that you proof-read and edit your response before you post it onto your blog.
