On Saturday, September 30 we reviewed pronouns..

Write a story .   The character that you've chosen, a new mother,  should be the main character in the story, but isn't necessarily the ONLY character in the story. Likewise, most of the story will take place in the setting (a shopping mall), but you can include other settings or add stuff to the setting that you have chosen (breaking it into several smaller settings, for example).  The time period you chose is during a concert.  The situation or challenge that you've chosen is someone has found or lost something.  This may involve the main character or your main character may observe someone else who must deal with the situation or challenge. In other words, you can combine these elements anyway that you desire, so long as all four are included in your story.  Please write at least one full page, double-spaced, with a title...your name at the top right, and use correct spelling and grammar.  Enjoy!

2. Horse knows when he is going to race. How does he know? His breakfast was scanty. (He is angry about that.) He does not have saddle on his back. He is being led, not ridden, to grandstand. He is led under grandstand into unusual, special stall. Horse is nervous. Sometimes he does not know what to do when starting gate flies open and track is before him. If he does not begin to run instantly, other horses are already ahead of him. During race, when he sees another horse just ahead of him, he will try to pass him. Sometimes jockey holds him back to save his energy for last stretch. Eventually horse gets to run as fast as he can.

Exercise boy, watching owner's favorite jockey riding horse he has exercised day after day, says nothing. Secretly, he is planning for day when he will be jockey himself, and his horse will be first to cross finish line.
