			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hey students,</p>
<p>Here is your assignment for Unit 3. Please type up a Google Doc containing a friendly message to one of your friends (real or imaginary). Follow the three-paragraph structure we&#8217;ve studied in Unit three of our text:</p>
<p><strong>Paragraph 1: Capture the moment</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Use sensory adjectives</li>
<li>Use the present continuous tense</li>
<li>Bring your friend into your life at this moment</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Paragraph 2: Tell a recent story</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Describe the setting using sensory and quantity adjectives</li>
<li>Use the simple past and past continuous tenses</li>
<li>Use spatial order to describe the scene as you see it in your mind</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Paragraph 3: Ask questions</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Ask two or three questions (to help your friend respond)</li>
<li>Use some set closing expressions</li>
</ul>
<p>If you need help, just follow the models on page 30 or page 36. You can highlight and replace some key words, keeping the basic sentence structures and patterns. Use your imaginations and paint some clear pictures in the readers&#8217; minds!</p>
<p>When you finish, share the G-doc link with me. I&#8217;ll make corrections and then send it back to you. Finally, copy and paste the corrected text onto the Assignments page of your blog.</p>
<p>Any questions? Please ask.</p>
