In your own words describe the study which you drew yesterday- focus on using parenthesis (brackets, dashes and commas) to give extra information about items in the room.
Example:
Maitland (who was no longer alive) had cast charms onto many of the objects in the room just in case there ever came a time when he wasn’t there to help Jones any longer.
The journals, which we all along the back wall, were all labelled in gold lettering from number 1-101, they contained information about all of Maitland’s encounters with monsters.
The papers, that were scattered all over the desk, contained important information about what Maitland was looking for.

Read chapter 5
From page 36 we are given a detailed account of what Maitland’s study looks like. I would like you to draw a detailed picture of what his study looks like. Make notes of all the information you are given about what is inside his study before drawing a detailed picture. Include details about light fittings, items on the desk, in the drawers (if you can fit these on), the books and specific names of books etc. I want your drawing to include as much information as possible so take you time and please colour this is and well. Make sure you stick this in your book after drawing so you don’t lose it. I would love to see pictures again this week so please keep sending them.
Imagine being Ruby, opening the door and being faced with the desk in front of you- that is what i want you to draw- you DO NOT need to include Ruby in the picture.
We will be using this picture on Tuesday so the more detail you include, the easier you will find that 🙂
