For the month of April the boys and girls have been working on Word Choice in their writing. We talked about how using our five senses can help us make our stories better and rich with details. Here is a story they wrote today.
Popcorn
The hot melted butter makes the popcorn feel greasy and slippery in my mouth. When I chew on it, it goes CRUNCH! Sometimes it looks like little yellow and white balls with skirts on them. When it is cooking it POPS! The smell reminds us of watching a movie at our house or at the movie theatre. It tastes magnificent because of the different flavours we put on our popcorn. Cameron’s favourite flavour is dill pickle. He says that it has a sweet and sour taste to it. Samantha likes cheddar and barbeque mixed together because it is her father’s favourite kind too. Logan likes his popcorn plain because he doesn’t like having greasy butter all over his fingers. How do you like your popcorn?
