Showing V. Telling

SHOWING: Sitting at her desk, diligently taking notes, Sydney heard the boys sitting behind her whispering and giggling as she tried to pay attention. She felt a tap on her shoulder as she was handed a note. She looked down at it, and there was a name on it: Anne Frank.

TELLING: Sydney was sitting in class when the boys behind her gave her an anti-Semitic nickname.
