I will use this photo as an example for my seventh grade Language Arts class to use with their Halloween writing assignment. They will find other examples of "haunted house" pictures, and write a fictional narrative about spending the night in the house.

It should be a good starting point for my students to write their fictional Halloween account. The sky is a little brighter than I wanted. I used a tripod and shutter cable. This picture is the result of my actually searching for this type of subject. I found this place on a lonely country road in "the middle of nowhere." _ Student name: David Ackman Type of evaluation (peer).

I work with elementary students and I enjoy reading their thoughts on all subjects. I like the building you chose for this project. however I think the focus could have been a little clearer. I used a visual writing prompt for this assignment as well. I plan to use it with a second grade class. I can't wait to read their stories!
