Showing Our Feelings At Writing

We are learning in KC that good writers show how they are feeling! We are becoming experts on telling our feelings. We made a strong feelings chart last week and now we are working on what the feeling looks like and sounds like.  We played charades using our bodies and trying to guess the feeling.

We read the following

We brainstormed what would a person do, act or say if they were feeling

In small groups we worked on the feeling sheets below! Each group recorded back to the class.

On a different day we worked on creating showing sentences below. We started with the sentences
 It was the first of school I felt happy.
