Describing a Face.

Crabb, Alfred L., Jr.

Exercise Exchange, v44 n1 p19-20 Fall 1998

Describes a class writing exercise for high school and college English classes (which functions well early in the first semester), which emphasizes a basic idea (that close inspection of a subject will reveal that there is a lot to say about it) by having students describe in detail a person's face, first as a class and then individually.
