Rock Collecting
1. Jeremy walked along the river bank looking for rocks after his chores were done.
After Jeremy’s chores were done, he walked along the river bank looking for rocks.
2. He had been collecting rocks for three years, but he had been interested for longer since his family visited his Uncle Cliff.
3. His mind wandered as he remembered.
4. Jeremy stayed after they had walked down the narrow stairs to the basement to see the latest additions to the collection.
5. There were rocks everywhere: on the floor, under the bench and on the tables.
6. Some were being cut, some were ready for the tumbler, and some were lying on the table ready to be made into jewelry.
7. Jeremy’s uncle answered all his questions and explained all the processes as they worked side by side in the cluttered basement.
8. He awakened from his daydream and continued to search for a rock or a fossil, hoping his uncle would be proud of him someday.
He awakened from his daydream and continued to search for a rock or a fossil; he hoped his uncle would be proud of him someday.
