27 Jun Photo discussion post.

Instructions:

1. After you’ve done some prewriting about your photo, read my sample response below.  

2.  The purpose of this activity is to share ideas, so you may use the ideas that I or your classmates post. Just make sure you come up with your own wording and support.

3.  Participate by clicking “Reply” after my post.  Please put your article title in your title, so your classmates can identify your subject quickly.

4.  You are welcome to comment on your 1-3 of your classmates’ ideas.  To do this, click on “Reply” after their post. 

5.  This is a friendly, brainstorming activity.  You will be graded based only on your participation effort and development.  If your ideas aren’t on the right track, that’s fine!  No one has all their ideas figured out at this point in the writing process. 

Here is my sample (you can use any of these ideas as long as you don’t copy my exact wording):

I’m writing about the Dia de los Muertos photo. 

1st body paragraph topic:  how the different appearances and emotions related to the people in the photo give the image depth 

2nd body paragraph topic:  the physical and emotional beauty of the grave decorations
