Your ideas and word choicesimagination and vocabulary

which best describes your writing?

It is very short I dont think I really understood what I had to do! There is very little or no detail, mainly simple statements my ideas dont fit my poems theme, many things dont make sense. characters do things without a reason, without motivation

no indication ofsetting of scenes, it is not clear where things happen. little or no attempt to describe anything words are often used more than once (repetitive) then and Teacher Not all of my ideas fit my poem, some things dont make sense. characters do things without a reason, motivations are not clear main characters details focus on simple description (brown hair, tall, smelly) little or no

attention to feelings, attitudes little/no indication of the setting of a scene, it is not clear where things happen. the words I have used to describe are boring (vague/imprecise) like nice I tend to rely on the sense of sight when describing things. some ideas/words are used more than once (repetitive) with little variation Teacher My ideas fit my poem, they make sense.

another). Almost everything I have included is relevant. Some aspects of the main characters are expanded with interesting details I have indicated the setting of each scene. Quite a few of the words I have used help to describe things clearly, people, places,

problems I refer to at least two senses not just the things that can be seen. I tried to use somefigurative language, (not literal, laughed my head off)
