Using the skills you learned in the travel writing unit, you will be slowing down a dramatic scene in Rabbit Proof Fence. Read pages 75-96.

Create tension and suspense by slowing this down and using showing details. You may want to write the scene from Molly’s point of view (1st person) to be able use interior conflict effectively.
