Journal writing activity #2

Write a complete description of Grendel
1. Reread the description of Grendel in lines 710-945. Jot down details of Grendel's description along with other details you'd like to add from your imagination. It might help to do a mind map. On a blank piece of paper make a circle in the middle, write Grendel's name in the circle. Make lines out of that circle and write a descriptive word on each line.

2. Write a description in your own words. Be sure to use alliteration and kennings if they don't sound too forced.

Have fun!

  2. Ms. Michelle, I will actually be taking on this assignment instead. I'll do point of view next time, though, for sure! This one just sounded very interesting...
