Sparkle Words


Hi!

I got this great idea from the Dr. Jean training a few weeks ago and my kids LOVE it. We have been talking about adding words to our stories that make them sparkle. We modeled sentences then "sparkle sentences" (ex. I see the cat. became I see the big, black cat.) What a difference. :)

Then each child picked their favorite "sparkle word", wrote it on a sentence strip and glittered it.

This simple bank of words has been a blessing to adding spice to our writer's workshop!
