Bellringer Feb. 12 and Feb. 19 How would you describe the style of your clothes today? Now write a sentence or two which MIMICs the style of your clothes.

Author’s style: Defining style handout Now, chart examples of how this author is writing. For effects, you are inferring how the words and the order they are in make you feel or make you associate with other ideas or things. For example, a short one word sentence might create the effect of urgency or importance. A long sentence with lots of description might create the effect of flowing, like a river. With your partner, decide what the sum total of the style effects reveal about the person telling the story.
