Let’s create a checkpoint piece. You can either revise and polish your work from this lesson (we’ve pasted it below) or you can write something completely new. (Your teacher may have a preference).
We’ve highlighted a high-level structure in the snippet, but within that you should try to:
- Have a character who watches the crowd go about their business
- Show what the crowd is doing as a whole and as individuals (or subgroups)
- Use actions to describe the crowd throughout the passage
- Be consistent with the choice of words (actions and descriptors) that you use, to convey your character's feelings about the crowd
- Finish off with the character's judgment and thoughts
