Description

The purpose of the Show, don’t Tell lesson is developing the student’s ability to write descriptively. Children are challenged to expand a word into a sentence or a sentence into a short paragraph, but they are not allowed to use certain words from the original sentence. They must think of ways to describe what is happening so that the reader can draw their own conclusions. They are leaving clues for the reader to solve.
