In class today, we will look at a recollection called Sky-high. In this piece, the character is reminiscing about her childhood backyard (specifically her affinity with the clothesline).
In order to continue with your creative writing practice, your task is to take your readers on a similar journey into a childhood memory. As with the task regarding travelling to/from school, you should aim to provide examples of showing rather than telling.
Remember, an effective way of engaging your audience is to appeal to their senses. Think about ways that you can get your readers to see, hear, smell, taste and touch what is going on.
This task, along with your school journey, need to be completed and posted on your blogs by no later than the end of the long weekend. Before posting, ensure that you have proof-read and edited your work. If possible, also have someone else proof-read your work.
