More Parts of a Whole Practice

Today, we wrote a practice draft for Parts of a Whole. We continued building off of what we did on Friday, except this time we wrote in whole paragraphs and about a topic of choice.

Still confused about Parts of a Whole?

The idea is to describe the components of something, and then describe how those parts go together. Describing the parts isn't new; we've done those kind of descriptions before, and we did them well. The new thing here is describing how they are put together to make up a whole.

Consider the outfit you are currently wearing. You may have shoes, a top, a bottom, perhaps socks and accessories.

Think about how you would describe each item, and then think about how they come together to make an outfit. Do the colors match? Are they the same brand? Is it all athletic wear or is it all comfy lounge-wear? How does one piece compliment the others? How are they physically arranged on your body? What prepositions could you use to describe how they are arranged?
