This is intended to be a fun, creative paragraph exercise and is not meant to be written formally or with extra care.  In other words, do your best, but it doesn’t have to be perfect.

Include the title at the top of the document. The minimum word count is 150 words.

Choose to write about one of the two prompts below.  Underline or highlight at least three complete simple sentences. 

If you get stuck, feel free to use the sentence patterns you wrote in your daily sentence composing journal as a guide.
