Building Ideas

Writing is not always easy or fun.  Sometimes it is hard to come up with ideas to write about.  We got to spend some time brainstorming a list of topics.  It was still tough for some of us!

Then our teacher had us line up in two lines.  We faced the person across from us.  Then we each had one minute to tell our partner a story.  After everyone shared, we switched partners.  I think we did it three times.

When we got back to our seats we had heard three other ideas, and shared three of our own.  It was a fun and useful way to brainstorm for writing!
