Awesome Adjectives

Last week we read "Don't Let the Pigeon Stay Up Late" by Mo Willems to learn about adjectives. After reading this much loved book, the students brainstormed a fantastic list of descriptive adjectives!  We then called up a classmate and the students called out adjectives to describe their friend.  We found the words to describe our friend to be quite different than that crazy pigeon!  Later in the day the students drew a self-portrait and used adjectives to describe themselves.
