Report on our trip to the high school planetarium by: Nate Wright Yesterday our class visited the high school planetarium for a lecture on stars and planets. It was very interesting. One thing we learned was how to identify constellations like Orion's Belt and the Big Dipper. But, fascinating as it was, this educational experience was merely a backdrop for a drama-filled tale of adventure and romance starring yours truly, Nate Wright. It all began shortly after our arrival at the high school. With cheetah-like quickness, I slipped away from the group. As I prowled the corridors, much to my disgust I encountered my sister Ellen playing "tonsil hockey" in public with her boyfriend Kenny. Appalled, I turned away... and suddenly I was looking in to the stunning blue eyes of Carol. Ellen's locker partner. She was drawn to me like a magnet to steel. I was just about to make my move when out of nowhere came a hallway monitor, laughing sadistically. 'you'll never take me alive!" I snarled menacingly, then turn- Mrs. Clarke: Sometimes a simple letter grade seems so inadequate.

Also, the Big Dipper isn’t a constellation, it’s an asterism.

Nate is actually a pretty skilled writer. Even though he kinda veered off prompt, he used excellent descriptive phrases, similes, metaphors, transitions, some pretty big vocabulary words, proper structure, and most importantly, a compelling/funny story. All the more proof Nate is a smart kid, he just doesn’t apply himself in school.
