Questions:
1. Who were you on the Trail of Tears?
2. Begin by listing your character's experiences. If you have many, list just the four most interesting ones.
3. Now, turn each of these experiences into a sentence. Don't forget to add details!
4. These ideas will become the body sentences of your paragraph. What is the best order for these ideas? Number them in the order you think they should go. Don't worry if you need to reword some of them. And it's O.K. to leave out an idea if it doesn't seem to fit, but you need at least three examples.
5. You need a topic sentence now. Is there a word or idea that describes all of your experiences? Maybe something like this: My experience on the Trail of Tears made me angry. Or, the Trail of Tears was a terrible experience.
Writing Assignment: Write a complete paragraph that describes your experiences on the Trail of Tears. Use the topic sentence and support you completed in the pre-writing section. Add a conclusion to finish your thoughts. Be sure to use lots of good detail. Of course, if you need to add other ideas, you can do that, too.
