Extra practice

These are actual sentences from student papers. They are shallow sentences. Please expand these sentences into three or four sentences with lots of specific details:

If we had a class pet, we would learn to be responsible.

iPads in fifth grade would help us to study better.

I saw all the best actors and got two pages of autographs.

The car took me all around the solar system. We saw all eight planets.

If I ever feel sad, my family cheers me up.

I hope you see this practice work and go above and beyond to improve your writing!
