Writing: Voice


1.       They say that a picture can tell a thousand words.  The captured images tell a story about the people, a time, or a situation.  Today we will be working with one of the six-traits of writing.

2.     VOICE:
o    What does it mean to put your voice in your writing?                   VOICE shows your personality when writing. The writing has a sound different from everyone else's. It has feeling and emotion so that it does not sound boring. The reader should be able to tell if you are happy or sad. The writer should be writing from the heart and bring the topic to life for the reader.

3.     You will look at the image and put yourself in the shoes of one of the protagonists in the picture.  Your text should be at least ten sentences long. Explain what you are thinking (You are the person in the photograph).  Tell your reader (me) what is happening. 


*When you are finished with your assignment, email it to me for revision.  You will make the necessary corrections and post it to the BLOG.

    Welcome to my home. Today, I want to show you how I live, my kids and I. We live so happy. I believe that when you saw my picture what do you thought. I am very poor and I suffer very much. I'll tell you my story, Welcome to my life...
    Everyday my family and I woke-up early to start working on the land. A few years ago we started a company. I'll tell you later, because I know you will never guess who I am. We to grew a lot of vegetables, fruits, and wheat. My family started to work we would sing until we finished working. It was not a regularsong. It was about what happeneeed on the day before and what we expected from the day. When we finished we would go inside the house and start laughing about ourselves. My name is Annies Green. My company names is Annie's Homegrown. And the picture you saw is my favorite because it shows how hard we worked for what I have today. Today my kids all ready grown up and still working with their mom.

  2. I am a Valley Katia feisty, intelligent and responsible. I've lived a hard life. At twenty-eight got married with Mr. Carlos del Valle. A working man, well, good family, but very ambitious money. After two years we had our first son named "Andrew". Then the second "Alexander" and finally the beautiful "Camila". Since then our family grew. Everything was fine until my husband started attending the casino. Each passing day his ambition grew more and more. Everyday bet all your money. Until I finish putting everything into what we had given as the family car, furniture, appliances, home and among other things. A disillusioned day my husband made ​​the decision to go with my children in search of a safe place. A whole day looking at nightfall but fails to achieve anything, it became very difficult and end up in a corner of the bridge "Yaguez". Since then I've been there one month, getting up every day first thing in search of a stable home for my children. I have no family life so difficult that I had different people turn to for help being denied. Today sitting watching the river that passes under the bridge begin to remember the good times spent with my husband and I asked why this nightmare. A purpose will have all this. I only ask God to shine my way and I go to a better place.
