AnswersAdd to your warm up as we discuss.2. To read as a writer means…..
…..reading something in order to use it as an example for your own writing. It means taking the next step as a reader and a writer moving from comprehending the story to analyzing the story.
To do this, you have to analyze parts of the story, such as: how the author begins and ends the story what images and similes the author uses: “It (my arm) hung
limply by my side like an elephant’s trunk.” how the author uses dialogue
That’s why you filled out the analysis chart, to get you thinking like a WRITER. What memory might you write about?

Thoughtshot #1
Not mine, not mine, but Mrs Price is already turning to page thirty-two, and math problem number four. I don’t know why but all of a sudden I’m feeling sick inside, like the part of me that’s three want to come out of my eyes, only I squeeze them shut tight and bit down on my teeth really hard and try to remember I am eleven, eleven.

Thoughtshot #2
I pedaled my squeaky bike around the curve onto Sarah Street, but returned immediately. I braked and looked back at where I had gone. My face was hot, my hair sweaty, but nothing scary seemed to happen. I started again, and again I rode the curve, my eyes open as wide as they could go. After a few circle eights I returned to our street. There ain’t no dogs, I told myself.

Snapshot #1
But the house on Mango Street is not the way they told at all. It’s small and red with tight steps in front and windows so small you’d think they were holding their breath. Bricks crumbing in places and the front door is so swollen you have to push hard to get in. There is no front yard, only four little elms the city planted by the curb.

Snapshot #2
The street had looked like our street: parked cars, tall trees, a sprinkler hissing on a lawn, and old woman bending over her garden.
My ankle was purple, large, and hot, and the skin was flaked like wood shavings.
