Will mark most let's read part of jeremy's post: the rushing sound of the river lulls me to sleep as the light, cool night breeze brushes tenderly over my face. the silvery glow of the full moon shines between the minuscule gap in the chintz curtains, and i know how it must be reflecting brightly on the water. create one original post that: shares an original descriptive paragraph about a place you know well. includes use of at least 2 descriptive techniques (figurative language, sensory language, alliteration, imagery, specific word choice, etc.)

Although I cannot write this for you because I do not know a place “you know well”, I can provide some pointers:

-begin by describing the geography of the location with alliteration (ex. rushing river)

-emphasize the most meaningful or impactful elements of the location using imagery/sensory language (ex. cool night breeze, silvery glow of the full moon, chintz curtains)

-include the locations’ relationship to YOU (ex. “lulls me to sleep”)

-conclude the post with a satisfying ending

quite an interesting way to teach topic sentences, because the answer to this question is the best definition of a topic sentence that one can present, it is as if answering the questions taught you how to do it, this is some real teaching, it is terribly well-done.

the topic sentence in this paragraph is:

topic sentences writers stay on track and keep a paragraph from becoming an aimless collection of sentences about an idea.

which incidentally tells you what a topic sentence should be.
