Week 32
You Are Going to be an Inventor!
Contributed by April Pinion
This week for English you will have a
chance to show me your very creative side. You are going to be an
inventor!
An inventor is someone who comes up
with a new product, device, or idea that helps accomplish a task or makes
something easier to do. Some inventions have been very
practical and helped all of us (the elevator, the zipper, and the ink pen)
while others have benefited only a few. (eye glasses for chickens, mustache
clips to keep the mustache out of your soup).
Think of an invention that would make
your life easier. In your first paragraph, describe your invention.
In the second paragraph, tell me you invention will make life easier for you.
Be sure and tie the two paragraphs together. For extra credit, you
may make a drawing of your invention and attach it to your writing.
Remember:
1. Have a title, date and heading
2. Indent
3. Good, legible handwriting
4. A clean, neat final copy
5. a rough draft showing corrections
6. Two paragraphs
7. Signature of the person who checked your rough draft for spelling errors.
