Reflection
This lesson was so much fun for both me as a teacher and the children. I loved the many opportunities we had to share both with the whole class and in smaller groups. It was really positive to see the children thinking about adjectives as a way to add description and detail to their stories. I personally loved the way the children showed joy in the writing process and were excited to write and come up with great language.
