THEME
What is the theme of your paper? The theme is the message your words send to your reader. What main idea and attitude will your readers picture from your words? Your words are your paintbrush: paint a picture that moves your movie from your mind to the reader's mind.
Here's a few examples:
Prompt: John Glenn
What did John Glenn see and feel on February 20th, 1962 while orbitting the earth?
1. Grade 5
John Glenn felt uncomfortable. He felt like a moose on a city bus, and saw the prettiest glowing marshmellows far out in the distance. He noticed the biggest ball of cheese ever, and that bright orange! Wow! That really made him hungry.
He enjoyed looking at those marshmellows until he remembered he was thousands of miles away from his family and friends. Exciting, but uncomfortable.
2. Grade 5
I think John Glenn felt airless, and it felt bumpy. John Glenn possibly felt sick with all the shaking and rattling. John was really scared being so close to the sun almost seeing stars sparkling and gleaming above. I think he felt like a sun without a glow, or a dog without a bone, or even a fish without gills. He felt misplaced.
3. Grade 5
I saw the moon and all the stars gleaming and glowing at me. I feel like I'm at home with everybody smiling, and my neighbors smiling, saying, "Good Morning."
The trip was the best thing of my life. The stars wer so spectacular; they made me sing and dance in the air while we floated up and up. When I left the ship, I gleamed over to the star. Finally, I rode on it; it was so gorgeous, it made me look absolutely beautiful.
We flew to Earth making everyone stop within a sudden beat. They all thought that star was the most spectacular star ever. I flew down, gliding, while everyone said, "A piece of heaven is falling from the sky."
Everyone was shocked when they saw it was me.
Prompt: Favorite Pet
If you could have any animal you wanted for a pet, what would it be and why?
Really: any animal, even imaginary. What would it be and why?
1. Grade 6
If I could have any pet in the world, it would be a lion. A lion would protect all of my property. If someone came in without permission, the lion would scare whoever it is off. If that person runs off, the lion wuold chase that person.
