Creating a Description
The easiest way to create a description is to list all the characteristics of the object/word
Imagine you wanted a person to search through a box of pens for a particular pen.
How would you do it. Do the following in your one note: Task: List all the attributes of this object in the picture to the right. Task 2: Take those attributes and form a sentence. For this one we are doing it together as a class. Task 3: In your one note is an activity to describe the objects. Complete that activity. |
