To get our minds working first thing in the morning, we played a game and used a mystery box to use adjectives to describe the contents that we could touch but not see. Later we worked with similes and a bit with metaphors. We revisited dialogue and watched a short video about the different uses of dialogue in our writing. There are so many different ways to say things!
The anthologies will be published in the fall. We prepared by practicing peer editing in a new way that was fun. Later, we went into the computer lab to edit and revise and to finish our pieces that we chose for the anthology that will be published in the fall.
We worked hard today, but we are just about ready!
