Spicy Words

On Monday, room 109 learned about "spicy words". Spicy words are usually adjectives. Authors use them to make their writing more interesting. First, room 109 tried to find ways to spice up the word "good". We found words such as fantastic and wonderful better described what we were trying to say. Then, Ms. Moya read aloud a book with good examples of spicy words. Finally, room 109 read books with their partners. Their goal was to try to find spicy words in their reading. Eventually, the students will be adding spicy words to their own writing.
