Beast Feast
2-27-08 I read, Beast Feast, by Douglas Florian to model an example of sentence fluency. This was a great text because it showed a variety of sentence length and beginnings.
In an effort to encourage kids to write in response to reading this book, I’ve tried my hand at a creative description of the prairie dog. Here goes….
Bolts of bronze fur flash before the eyes, like a tennis match. Scurrying along from hole to hole, the prairie dog searches for the perfect spot to rest and eat his snack.
You give it a try!
