Brown Bag Paragraphs

Tonight:


  • Pick one object to put inside your brown bag.

  • Write a paragraph on a loose leaf paper that describes what is inside--but don't say what it is!

  • Use as many adjectives and sensory words as you need to help the readers visualize what it is!

  • Tomorrow, we will read our classmate's paragraphs and guess what it is! Remember, you want your writing to be so descriptive that you paint the picture of your object in our minds!

  • Be prepared to highlight the different adjectives that you used to help your writing be more descriptive.

A reply!!

Wahoo! We got a letter back from the Veterans Hospital. Check it out:

Students measuring!

Today we found objects and estimated their length.

Later, we got to go back and compare our estimates with their actual length!
