Student Sample: Upper Elementary
 Demoralized
by Tayeb, fifth grade writer
Demoralized deer
Running away from wolves
Scared terrified frightened panicked
Deer
The demoralized deer
Scary
Scary wolves
Trying to catch the frightened deer
Bloodthirsty hungry starving ravenous
Wolves
The scary wolves
Terrifying
Terrifying woods
Just standing there
Stationary dark unlit dull
Woods
The terrifying woods
All these words just make me feel
Frightened
Terrified
Horrified
Scared but
Most of all
DEMORALIZED.
