Instructions
In this activity, you will practice writing dialogue and indirect speech. Follow each section carefully and have fun!
Part 1: Writing Dialogue
Imagine you are having a conversation with your friend about your favorite book. Write a short dialogue (at least 4 lines) between you and your friend. Remember to use quotation marks!
