Narrative Reading Response

It was a very exciting in English. We had three days to work on a personal narrative that needed a purpose, significance, and vivid details. For three days every student began to hammer down on their keyboards typing wildly so that they could do a good job on their next big assignment. Below I am going to explain my experiences and some concerns with my personal narrative.

So far I am quite pleased with the work that I have done so far. I am very surprised with how much work that I have gotten done in the past week, and I only have a few concerns about the quality of my personal narrative. The first one being my vivid details. I believe that I need help with my vivid details because my narrative just seems bland. I really want to fix this so that my story can enrapture the reader. Another concern that I have is my sentence fluency. My entire narrative seems like it is made up of super long sentences.

  1. I can relate to this, as I also feel that most of my narrative is passable, but there are a few spots for concern. I like that you made this post itself fully personal, so keep up the good work!

Week 8 Free Writing

I noticed something very puzzling over this fall break. Every year my family takes a trip to Destin over fall break. We all have a great time as long as there are no red flags. And that was the problem with this year. Every single day that I went to the beach, there was a red flag even though the waves were very calm. Upon getting into the water, my feet fell from under me and I fell face first into the sand. It was painful, to say the least. I experienced something called under toe. It is actually very normal, and I was just stupid enough to not expect it. Under toe is caused by the waves that hit the shore and start falling back into the ocean. It creates a very powerful pulling force whenever there are strong waves. If this force is strong enough, then it can be very deadly. So just be careful the next time things look calm and always check the flag color for that day.

Symbolism

There used to be a mother and her son. His dad left when he was little, and they were both living in a house about ten miles away from town by a large field. The mother worked at a small sawmill managing books, and the son spent every weekday going to Mrs. Getrid's second-grade class. But there was one thing that Mrs. Getrid never understood. Every day the students would go home to eat lunch, but the son never had his mother pick him up. He always walked away from school even though his house was miles away from the school. He would always come back, hungry, and would continue school like normal. The mother never even knew that the children came home for lunch. She never really paid attention to her own son, and the son knew this. But nonetheless, she worked the books for the sawmill every day managing where the money went. She was good at her job too, but there was always one aspect of the books that she would never check. That was her salary. She was quite embarrassed by how ...
