LABEL IT
Make a copy of your chosen image
Tiger, Chameleon, Rabbit, Monkey , Elephant Seal, Zebra, Baby Gorilla (Remember to re name it and put it in your WRITING FOLDER)
Write notes around your image (include interesting/WOW words) describing your image. You could describe what it looks like, what it is doing, include the senses etc.
Create a new SLIDE in your WRITING FOLDER, name it and then using your notes write a very describe sentence (or sentences) about your image.
Make it fancy :) eg publish it and then upload it to your blog. DON'T FORGET YOUR STEMS!!
NOTE...some of you already started publishing your descriptive sentences from the beginning of the term. You could complete those first and then start a new one :)
WORK HARD TAMARIKI!! I look forward to read your fantastic work.
