Week 2 Writing Homework

Writing Prompt: Take the sentence “The boy/girl was scared of the dark room” and rewrite it into a vivid, 100–150-word character moment that shows the boy’s fear through his actions, sensory details, and the setting of the dark room. Focus on using precise vocabulary, a metaphor or simile, and subtle hints about his personality or backstory to make the moment engaging. Ensure the description feels immersive and reveals the boy’s character indirectly.

Use at least two sensory details (e.g., sight, sound, touch) to describe the dark room. Include one metaphor or simile to enhance the portrayal of the boy’s fear.

Show the boy/girl’s personality or backstory through his actions or thoughts, not direct statements.

Use a sophisticated connective (e.g., nevertheless, consequently, whilst) to link ideas.
