A grain of granite describes its long journey from a mountain to the ocean. It began when a rainstorm caused a flood that sent the granite rolling down the mountain into a river. It was tossed and turned in the river's rapids and meanders for days, fearing it would crack apart. Eventually, the granite reached the river's delta and entered the ocean, relieved to be out of the river. Months later, the granite discovered it had transformed into shale over the course of its long and eventful journey.

Sandy was a pebble relaxing on a cliff until the wind blew him into the river. As he crashed against rocks in the fast-moving water, Sandy broke into smaller pieces and feared for his life. Though the river slowed, it left Sandy alone and scared in the middle of nowhere. Another wave eventually pushed Sandy onto a beach where the other sands welcomed him as one of their own.The little match girl
The little match girlAbdulrhman Shdefat

A little girl is out in the cold on Christmas Eve trying to sell matches to earn money for her family. With each match she lights, she sees a brief vision - a warm stove, a Christmas feast, a beautiful Christmas tree - before it goes out and the vision disappears. When she lights her last match, she sees her grandmother who had passed away. Her grandmother takes her away from the cold up to the stars where they will be warm. The next morning the little girl is found dead in the snow, with a smile on her face.Punctuating dialogue

Punctuating dialogue can be confusing. Writers are encouraged to quote exact words in fictional writing, personal writing, and other genres too.
This free teaching resource is from Innovative Teaching Resources. You can access hundreds of their excellent resources here. https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Store/Innovative-Teaching-Ideas
Nonetheless, that does not mean that the rule for when to use a capital letter and other punctuation marks is clear. This PowerPoint provides a number of examples relevant to the punctuation of dialogue. The simple explanations combined with the examples will get students on the right track to having characters conversing on paper to evoke emotional responses from their readers. After all, stating someones exact words is a lot more meaningful than just casually telling what was said.

The summary discusses the conflict between feelings and reason experienced by Aram and Mourad in William Saroyan's short story "The Summer of the Beautiful White Horse". When Aram first sees Mourad riding the white horse, he knows it was likely stolen but feels this cannot be true due to his family's honest reputation. Aram and Mourad continue to ride the horse based on their feelings rather than reasonably acknowledging it was stolen. When they meet the horse's owner Byro, he chooses to have faith in them rather than accuse based on reason. Byro's comments help the boys see past their desires and return the horse the next day based on reason rather than feelings.Diamante poems

Characterization is the process by which authors convey information about characters through direct and indirect methods. Direct characterization involves the author directly stating a character's traits using adjectives, while indirect characterization reveals traits through a character's thoughts, words, actions, and how others respond to them using verbs. Together, direct and indirect characterization help readers understand a character's personality and develop inferences about them.The wind and the sun

The poem "Dust of Snow" by Robert Frost describes how a small moment of nature lifted the poet's gloomy mood. The poet was feeling sad and regretful under a hemlock tree when a crow shook snow from the tree's branches onto him. This unexpected dusting of snow unexpectedly changed the poet's mood, saving the rest of his day from being ruined by his previous sadness. Though the crow and hemlock tree often symbolize negativity, in this case their small natural action brought the poet positive feelings and optimism, showing how simple things in nature can dramatically change one's perspective.Wilfred Owen Biography

He tumbled into a mountain stream and was washed down the mountain very fast, unable to see. When he reached flat land, Pebbles was exhausted. He was carried further by an old river where he felt like he was on a meandering roller coaster. Pebbles eventually reached a delta where more sediments joined and some were carried off by waves, making Pebbles feel like he was in bumper cars.

Rocky was originally a pebble resting on a mountain. During a landslide, Rocky was tossed down the mountain and into a stream, where erosion from the moving water began to wear Rocky down into a smaller size. Rocky then flowed into increasingly mature rivers where more erosion occurred, making Rocky smaller still. Eventually, Rocky stopped in a delta and sat until waves pushed him back into the slow river. Rocky ended up washing ashore as a grain of sand, having been eroded down from his original pebble size by the forces of moving water and wind over his journey.Sand

As he flows downstream, he experiences weathering from the river water and crushing from glaciers that turn him into rock flour. The flour settles in a sand bar where he is further crushed and ground down into sediment. Finally, he covers the bones of a dinosaur and becomes part of the fossilized remains, transforming into a sedimentary rock.Sand

Eventually the river calmed down and Robert meandered around, finding interesting items before discovering a peaceful delta. After exiting the delta, he joined forces with another lost rock named Gary the Gravel to find land. Over many years by the shore, the two rocks eroded into grains of sand but remained best friends as they talked and shrank together.The jorney of a grain of sand

Tina was a pebble that was unlike the other pebbles because she was always moving from place to place. One day, she got caught in a landslide which tumbled her down a 200 foot slope and into a river. In the river, she endured being tossed around and battered by other rocks in the fast-moving, narrow stream. Eventually, the river slowed and Tina was able to rest, though she had been chipped down to almost a speck. However, the river led to a delta where the current picked up speed again, pulling Tina into enormous waves.

Tina was a pebble that was unlike the other pebbles because she was always moving from place to place. One day, she got caught in a landslide which tumbled her down a 200 foot slope and into a river. In the river, she endured being tossed around and eroded by the fast-moving water. She was relieved when the river slowed down, but then found herself in a delta where the water picked up speed again, plunging her into enormous waves. Ultimately, Tina survived her crazy adventure and journey.Recently uploaded (20)

He is very interested in working in the fashion industry to create his own fragrance line company.
We sat together with Kris and asked him how would his reality TV show be like. He was very positive and optimistic and said it would be less boring than (Keeping up with the Kardashians) and more interesting than ( The Amazing Race) Kris usually does not cook but now he is taking cooking classes so he can cook for himself and others because before he had people who cook for him. And he still does people who cook for him.
On his show Kris said he wanted to learn how to make an upside down pineapple cake. It has always been a dream of his to cook easily and effortlessly. Now could be that time.
Kris still has not closed the doors to radio and TV but he is sick of self help and being an influencer.
He just adopted a cat whom he adores. He doesnt believe in buying pets. Because there are so many dogs and cats that need a home
Kris also stated that he doesnt mind being in other reality shows such as Americas Got Talent or Idol.
We will see what network will Kris choose for his reality TV show.

One day, Benny gets a call from cat named Teddy, who owns a busy pizza restaurant. Teddy needs help because he is overwhelmed with customers and lacks employees. Benny's cousin, Cheddar, an orange-tabby cat, joins him in helping Teddy. When they reach the restaurant, they quickly realize it is crowded and chaotic.
Despite their efforts, things go wrong. Cheddar eats the pizza dough, which shocks Teddy, and Benny accidentally overcooks the pizzas. Frustrated with their performance, Teddy scolds them, ultimately deciding that they'd be better off not helping. Upset, Benny and Cheddar leave the restaurant.
Later, Benny the cat reads fan mail from his fans, answering questions about his preferences, including music and superpowers. Hollywood Actress 266 - Zsolt Nemeth

Journey of a grain of sand :)
- 1. Journey of a Grain of Sand I was thinking about this title the other day. This is not about a grain of sand. I always thought it should be called, Story of a Brave Granite, but that's the way it is. Let's just cut to the story now. I was a little granite who went on a big journy. After my endless journey, I have become a shale stone. This is how it began:
- 2. Journey of a Grain of Sand One day, a giant rainstorm hit the mountains, where I lay still for days. The sky was as dark as the deep bottom of the ocean! Suddenly, I was starting to move by the flood that was caused by the horrible rainstorm. I kept rolling until I hit a river.
- 3. Journey of a Grain of Sand I cried for help while I was trying to get out of the river. I kept flowing down the river until I was at the bottom of the mountain. The water roared while water was being spilled all over me. I thought I would be craked into a billion little pieces before the terrifying storm ended! The storm ended about an hour later. My heart was pounding with relief and my face was showing glee but little did I know I had much more trouble ahead of me.
- 4. Journey of a Grain of Sand I was a bit calmer, but I was still a little bit worried about what would happen when the river would come to an end. Soon, I was feeling a bit noxious. It's because I was in a roller coaster of meanders! They were getting bigger and bigger! My head was spinning so fast that I felt like I was going to... well, you know.
- 5. Journey of a Grain of Sand I was relived like I was when the storm was over. I was relived because there were no more meanders to be seen. I was panicking again when I saw saw something else in the distance of the river. I took a close look and noticed that it wasn't bad at all. It was just an oxbow lake. It was HUGE! It was bigger than other ones I have seen before. At least I didn't get stuck in it. It was already formed.
- 6. Journey of a Grain of Sand Days and days have gone by. I was getting very bored. Suddenly, my eyes opened with more relief than ever before on my journey. My face was covered with a giant smile. The end of the river was there! A delta took me out of the river and into the ocean. How nice it was to not worry about anymore obstacles in my path, and of not being in that rapid river.
- 7. Journey of a Grain of Sand A few months later, I noticed something different. I was a shale! From that point on, I have always been wondering how this happened. So that's my story. Everytime I think about my journey, I always put a huge smile on my face and tell the whole story to myself over and over again.
