Each group gets 4 short descriptive paragraphs about a celebrity. They have 3 minutes individually to read their paragraph and choose the sentence that is most 'tellling'. Orally, they share their sentence with the rest of the group. The group tries to figure you who is the celebrity. One group member then shares with the whole class their 4 descriptors, who they think it describes, and why. The class gets to offer other guesses, which the group must either accept or reject. Drum Roll. The celebrity image is revealed along with all four paragraphs.]]> 2017-07-06 14:26:41 UTC https://padlet.com/kmurphy50/ccjra9bxks46/wish/178197845 Evon/Brenda/Teng https://padlet.com/kmurphy50/ccjra9bxks46/wish/178303681 Use Minecraft to do My Dream House project.
