Writing Assignments
Write a short story set in a very specific type of world that is an “extreme” environment. Your story can be about people or animals. Include some type of information in the story that illustrates a part of a food chain. Be sure to use a lot of description and perhaps some figurative language (similes/metaphors, etc.).
Ideas:
⭒A scorching desert world
⭒A frozen world
⭒A world that swings between the two extremes
⭒A watery world
