(((PREVIEW)))

• tomorrow, you will be writing a 4-paragraph essay based on the following pictures (you will only get 1 picture out of the 5, then you will write the short essay by guessing what the picture is)

SAMPLE (we did during class this morning):

The picture above could be many things. It could be a solid metal, or even a fridge. However, I have two guesses about the picture above. My first guess is an oven, and my second guess is an elevator.

My first guess is an oven. I think it’s an oven because I’ve seen ovens that look similar; for example, I have seen them at Swiss Chalet. Also, the shape has the potential to be an oven. Think about how an oven looks like. An oven is rectangular in shape, some are made out of metal, and they have door handles. The picture above has these characteristics, that’s why I think it’s an oven.

My second guess is an elevator. I think the picture is an elevator because it looks like it has the two doors that open, similar to an elevator. In addition, the handles look like the inside of an elevator. Moreover, the picture looks like it’s made out of metal, an elevator usually is made out of metal.

In Conclusion, I believe that the picture above is either an oven or an elevator. I may not be correct, but I am confident about my guesses.

SUNDAY Reminder from Mr. C

"As discussed in class, with constant reminders this past week, your SPEECHES are due tomorrow! You don't need to hand in anything, just be ready to present! Remember to dress the part and hopefully you've already made cue cards, not pages of paper, that you will be reading from during your speech. The presentations will be random, so be ready to present..."

~ Mr. Contiga
