Final Draft Assessment
Step 1: Paste your final draft of your story below.
I hoped it would work, oh, how I hoped my plan would work. I had paid a lady who look
extremely similar to me to take my spot in the stand. We look so much alike that my father,
even close up, could not tell us apart and my lover from a far wouldn't see the difference
ether. We made the switch easily and all she had to do was point to the right when the time
came. I was running through the tunnels under the arena that led to the doors that held the
woman and the tiger. I had studied a map of them since I found they existed. Finally I made it.
Now all I had to do was to chose the one which contained the beautiful woman. I flung open
the door o the right and yanked the girl out. I locked the door behind me before she even
knew what happened. I then turned around and put on a smile just a split second before the
door in front of me was opened. Sunlight seeped through blinding me for a second but I knew
what to do. I stepped out and showed myself. As my eyes adjusted I saw the look of shock on
my lovers face along with everyone else, including my father's. That was when all of the
people who were involved with the wedding came pouring out and then the wedding
proceeded. there was also nothing my father could do about my plan. Since he made the law
that said "The man must marry the woman who steps out of the door, regardless of his
situation in life." The wedding was wonderful and we are now living happily ever after.
Step 2: Complete the reflection activity with details about your understanding and
implementation of the revision and editing process.
Answer each question with a minimum of 2-3 sentences each.
Explain the steps you
took to revise your
first draft. Be sure to
address the addition
of imagery, literary
devices, figurative
language, and word
choice.
Describe the steps
you took to edit your
narrative. Be sure to
address how you
checked for grammar,
subject-verb
I wanted to add some more imagery words to make the reader feel
more attached to the story. I also tried talking like how someone
talked back then to keep it just like the original story.
For me I use word and what not so the computer practically does it for
me, but I would like to mention that I do read over the sentences to
make sure they sound correct or check to make sure I did not make
any sentence fragments. As for words I try to use words on contrary
to the story.
agreement,
punctuation, and
spelling.
Summarize three
things you learned
during this process
that resonated with
you.
Well in this question I learned what the word "resonated" means. I
also learned that word choice as well as sentence fluency are
important. If I were to lack these it would sound botched and the story
would just not flow as it should.
