~We are almost done with our first Writing Project, The Great Jacksonville Tsunami. Students were asked to write a piece of fiction that involves a tsunami hitting Jacksonville Beach. Our focus was on using variable transitions and focusing on figurative language (similes, metaphors, idioms, etc.) to make our writing more engaging and interesting! I cannot wait to read the published copies on our bulletin board! We also learned a lot about what causes tsunamis and the devastating effects of these deadly natural disasters!
