Response to Image Writing - Term 3



As a result of a lot of hard work in Room 4 we have make excellent progress in our writing and have really been "making our writing come alive." Above is a photograph taken by a photographer named Margaret Bourke-White from the Buchenwald Concentration Camp in Germany, 1945. From your writing I would like you to post a couple of your best sentences from your story. Remember to focus on language that paints a picture in the reader's mind.
