Presentational Writing
When was the last time you went to a mall or other shopping area? Write a real or imaginary
account of a trip to the mall. Tell where you went and with whom, what you did, and what you
bought. Be sure to describe your purchases in detail, giving colors and why you bought them.
If you saw items you did not like, explain why. Tell where you stopped to rest or eat, and what else
you did at the shopping center. Be sure to use connecting words for making smooth transitions and
for telling the sequence of events. Use a diagram like the one below to organize your ideas before
you start writing.
