Reality Show

Imagine that your family is going to be featured on a TV reality show. How do you think the network should advertise the show? What should they say about your family? What kind of a show would your family be on, and what would the viewers learn from it?

Your response should be 150-300 words, and use good paragraph form and good conventions.

Life Garden

Choose one plant that represents you (carrot, begonia, pine tree, etc.). Choose other plants that represent other people and events in your life, good and bad.

Imagine a diagram of your garden. Where will you be located (in the sun, the shade, in the middle, or at a corner, etc). Where will the "good" plants be in relation to you? Where will the "bad" plants be?

Now describe your garden. Tell what the different plants represent, and why.

Your response should be 150-300 words, and use good conventions in good paragraph form.
