EXTRA CREDIT

Use the following as the beginning of a story:

The dead tree stood silhouetted against the setting sun. Two figures approached, shuffling along the dusty road.

Finish the story. You should:
*include conversation between the two characters. Their conversation should reveal who they are, where they've been, why they're there, and where they're going
*use correctly at least 10 of our vocabulary words (underline them in your story)
*be sure your story has a beginning, a middle, and an end
*give your story a title
*either write it legibly in ink on theme paper (one side only) or type it
*include the signatures of at least five people who have read it


Your story should be a minimum of one typed page. It can be as much longer as you wish. This is due no later than Wednesday, March 26.
