Which Object Will You Pick for Your Write and Tell?

Today, you will start your write and tell. Your first task is to pick an object that is special or interesting. What would you like to show to your friends? Once you have picked your object, you are going to think of as many ideas as you can about your object. You could write them in a web or in a list. Sometimes, this is called a brainstorm because the ideas are storming out of your brain like thunder, lightning, and rain. Making a web or list of ideas before you start writing will make it much easier when it is time to write.

What will you do for fun today? I found this video that shows how to make an origami butterfly. The instructions in the video seem easy to follow. The first steps are the same ones that we used to make the family pop up page in your life story so you should already know how to do them.

Here is a book that I think that you will like. It is called Snappsy The Alligator and it is written by Julie Falatko and illustrated by Tim Miller. Notice how the reader changes his voice for different characters. You could try this in drama today.
