Let’s go green! Welcome back for another writing challenge. This month I’d like you to write something about a blissful place. No, I’m not talking about your travel or recent vacation, but it’s much appealing than you think – a garden! Do you have one? Mine is a bit disorganized that’s why I’d like to challenge you to share about your garden or plants that you’ve been taking care of recently. We could find some inspiration and new ideas that’d be useful to fellow plant lovers. Moreover, it’s a great way to practice our written English while exchanging some tips and tricks in managing the garden.

The aim of this activity is to practice using complex sentences as well as the proper usage of vocabulary words related to plants and gardening. Here's a useful lesson about sentence structure.

Your Task:

1. What’s your garden look like? Practice describing it. Is it big or small? Try to use new vocabulary words.
2. What types of plants or trees that we can find in your garden? You could include some photos! You can highlight the name of the plants and some words that you find new to you. They stick to your readers’ minds better.
3. Do you find gardening as an exciting activity or just a past time? Tell us your overall impression about your garden. You can include some tips to better manage a garden.
4. Write two to three paragraphs answering the questions above. Share the link of your blog on the comment box below with the title- Writing Challenge: My Garden/Plants. You could come up with a unique title too. Don’t forget to proofread your blog!

If you don’t have a garden, you can still join the challenge by simply blogging about a garden that you’ve visited. What about your neighbor or a friend’s garden in your area?

So if you’re up for the challenge, let’s start blogging and make our MyEC community bloom again with your interesting ideas and fabulous gardens.

Here's my writing challenge entry.
