Here's some extra practice with concrete and significant details:

     Steve was a good kid.  He got good grades and was never late to class. 

The description above is vague and blah.  In your notebook (right under the work you've already done with concrete and significant details) tell me about Steve, using significant details.  You still have to present the same ideas, just make them more meaningful and interesting.  Add something that Steve does that nobody expects.  Remember, you have some word banks in your notebook to help with some of this.

Keep working on the rough draft of your short story.  It is due tonight at MIDNIGHT
