POSITIVE TONE EXAMPLE

• Riding the roller coaster was like being
• Propelled into space the wind hitting my face as i was
• Plummeting down gave me the rush of my life
• As my heart was racing i felt like i was on top of the world
• When it was over my heart was a spaz but i didn't really last

NEGATIVE TONE EXAMPLE

• When the ride started i feared for my life
• As it went up i thought i would die the twists snd turns on the track
• Were the same as my stomach back to back as we finaly went down the hump
• I didn't feel well i slumped and then dumped RIght on my Son
• But he sure thought it was fun
