Onomatopoeia I HAVE / WHO HAS
As an ESL teacher, I have fallen in love with I have/who has games! They are a great way to have the students engaged while practicing their reading, speaking, and listening skills.
This particular I have/who has game is dedicated to Onomatopoeia. The students are given a description of a sound, such as, "Who has the Onomatopoeia sound that you make when you are cold?" Another student will then respond, "I have BRRRR!"
The students will enjoy making the silly sounds, while becoming familiar

32 Printable worksheets with pictures to write Adjective Paragraphs
This document contains 32 unique worksheets with a big vivid picture and lines to write a paragraph using adjectives. Each also includes directions. I put an example paragraph as the first page of the documet so you can show the kids how to do it. Sometimes it works better to model though, starting with a blank lined page and having them give you sentences to write. That way you can model how to expand it to include even more adjectives.

Introduction to Writing Hook Sentences
My third graders are learning how to make our writing more exciting this week, so I made this as an introduction. The first page is for them to do with me as a class and glue into their Writer's Notebooks. The next pages are for them to practice on their own. I wanted to focus on three types of hooks: asking a question, stating a fact, and painting a picture. There are many other types, but in the interest of not overwhelming them, I chose these three types. Enjoy!
