MY FAVORITE
THING
Goals:
This lesson will assist students in:
This lesson is designed to assist
students in avoiding the "I don't know what to say" dilemma and to assist
reluctant writers by writing about a favorite thing.
This lesson can be incorporated with
many areas of writing you are currently focusing on in the classrooms, such
as:
• Spelling
• Grammar
• Punctuation
• Sentence Formation
• Conveying Ideas
Objectives:
Students will choose a topic to write
about and describe the object using all five senses. For those objects that
cannot be described by a particular sense (a teddy bear does not have a
taste, for example), students are asked to either write two entries for a
different sense or use their imagination to describe how they think the
object would taste, smell, or sound.
Materials:
Procedure:

Students may work individually or in
small groups.
Assessment:
Observe students' progress. Collect
worksheets at the end of the session.
