Today we read a story about a boy who found a place in the real world that felt special to him, then went there “in his mind” when he felt scared or worried.

Think about a special place that you can go to in your mind when you are sad, scared, upset, or worried. Where is your place? Do you have memories or feelings that are attached to it? What makes it special for you, or makes you feel better when you think about it?

Remember to develop your thoughts. Proofread for spelling, punctuation, and capitalization.

Use ISDC to help you write about the following statement:

There are great things and not-so-great things about having a break from school.

You can use the statement above as your topic sentence. Remember to develop your thoughts and proofread your writing carefully for spelling, grammar, and punctuation. You can write more than one paragraph!
