Here are the storybirds our impressive 3rd Graders are doing ! Students were given several lists of spectacular adjectives from writingfix.com They were asked to select ten words they did not already know, look them up in one of two visual dictionaries (lexipedia or visuwords), define them, and use them in a sentence. Then students created storybird digital books using several of their new words which are listed below. Enjoy - Click on open and turn the pages of our digital storybooks !
