With your partner, look through the different versions the class came up with for the first six sentences of the "Motorcycle Pack" sentence combining activity. Deliberately choose the best from each group to create a short paragraph of the first six sentences from "Motorcycle Pack." Aim for variation in the beginnings of the sentences. Write this as a paragraph, NOT a list of sentences.
Be sure to include the names of all group members in your post.
Winding down the road east of town through the mountains we could hear them coming way off in the distance. It made us think of power saws when the deep sustained got louder. The brush was thick and full of shadows when we first broke into view at the edge of town. Others swarmed behind him and rapped their pipes which brought a noise like a wave. The leader set the swaggering pace through the middle of town, gearing down at the grocery store. Not glancing to the side, the leader did not acknowlegdge the people watching from the sidewalk.
