More Interactive Skills Block Fun

Today in skills block we talked about synonyms and how we should use vivid vocabulary in our writing.  After exploring a thesaurus, students brainstormed lists of synonyms for words the teachers put on the board.   In the pictures you can see the students writing their words in categories.  We've also included the finished product - some of the best words that "popped" into our heads.  The kids will be encouraged to use this word wall in their writing.
