Journal Week 3

Journal Week 3

• Your journal entry for today is to be about a place in Rotorua that is special to you
• Describe in detail how your special place looks, the sights, sounds, smells and how this place makes you feel - try to describe this in a way that a reader could close their eyes and be able to picture the place.
• Why is this place important to you? What do you do when you are there?
• What do you know about the history of the place? Has it always been as it is now? What was it like in the past? If you do not know anything about the history of the place use your imagination to write about how you think the place might have been in the past.

The above suggestions/questions are there as a guide for you - if there are extra things that you would like to add to your journal entry please do!

This writing exercise is about being descriptive and detailed to give a real sense of this place and how it makes you feel, not about writing short simple answers to the questions.
