Write about an “organization” in your community: scouting, churches, RaiderCloset, MaineMoose, Homeless Shelter, Home for Little Wanderers, local sports teams, American Legion, drama groups, school clubs, any non-profit group, ETCETERA! Write an informative piece about this “organization.” Describe the organization. What do they do? What type of people belong? How can you join? Do they do good work? Basically, I want you to give me facts and details as you REPORT on this organization. This must be at least one full page. This is a “composition” test, and you are asked to do the following:

a. Have at least two sentences COMBINED using semicolons, colons,

commas correctly

b. Identify at least two LINKING VERBS used correctly

c. Circle all the ADJECTIVES in your composition (have at least two)

d. Use at least two APPOSITIVES in your writing!

Please use colored pencils, markers, etc to make a “key” so I know what underlined things are what (for example, underline all the linking verbs in red....circle the adjectives in green...etc)
