Climax paragraph due Wednesday. Students need to write the paragraph (or more) that will be in their rough draft where the problem is solved=CLIMAX. For example, in the story of a plant taking over the world, it would be the moment that the scientist figures out the chemical that halts the plant's growth. The scene should be written in such a way that the audience feels like they are there. As many senses as possible should be used.
Here is an example:  Dr. Dread blinked back his tears, tasting their salty goodness as he saw for the first time the plant being depleted of energy, dying before his eyes. He wiped the tears away and as if in slow motion, watched his hand dial the president to tell her the good news.  He screamed into the phone, "I've done it, I've finally killed the plant!" The phone felt hot in his hands as he listened to the president's own sobs of joy at his news. He picked up his phone and showed the president a life steam video of the plant reacting to the sodium chloride in the petri dish. "Watch, see how the stem is wilting, the leaves withering! That is death my dear leader, death! We have done it!"
