For G/H Class only...
Step 1) You must search the internet for an interesting image
Step 2) You must describe the image as effectively as possible using precise diction. Their description should ensure:
1) - Describe JUST the most important details (less is more)
2) - Use details that connect to multiple SENSES (see, feel, hear, etc)
3) - Have a REASON for the details you provide (does each detail add to ‘author’s purpose?’)
4) - State the 'reason' for your description. What emotion were you trying to convey?

Mr. Buxton, that picture perfectly goes with your poem and ties it all together. Sophie and Lucy look just like you. They look a lot older than when I saw them in 2011 when we first came to Singapore.
