3.1.10 Practice Write a narrative about a humorous situation. Whether you focus on a real event or make up a fictional one, use comedic techniques and rich descriptions to bring the experience to life.
You'll start with a narrator who has a clear perspective, even if the narrator is you. Then you'll build the scene from the ground up: You'll describe the setting using imagery that appeals to the senses, you'll bring out characters' personalities with realistic dialogue, and you'll use certain comedic techniques, like the ones Mark Twain uses, to introduce some humor.
This writing assignment will focus on the following skills:
Creating a first-person narrator with a clear perspective
Creating a funny situation or problem
Writing realistic dialogue
Writing vivid description
