Showcase - "lugubrious" - Aadya


Aadya explains the meaning of the word "lugubrious" beautifully in just seven sentences. 

Notice the sensory details that she uses to connect with the reader. We will be learning more about this when we discuss details in writing. 

 Well done, Aadya!




It was a misty night. All the villagers were lugubrious because their king had died. They roamed around in the streets wearing black. Wolves howled in the distance. Clouds covered the moon keeping the night dark. All the women wept as the coffin was carefully buried. The villagers then said a silent prayer.
