Creative Writing


      I took this picture at the end of last summer of my golden retriever staring out the window. He sat their long enough for me to frame him in the picture. The school year is coming to a close, short on lessons and only a few more days of school left, I still need to teach but the project based learning lessons have to be less time consuming. We discussed the different aspects of the picture. When was it taken? Where is it taken? Who was the photographer...etc. Leading to the big question “What is he looking at?” We didn't discuss the question "What he is looking at?" since the creativity would be directed in the paragraph.   It made a great writing bulletin board for grades K-5 creatively expressing on what he was watching or looking at! (I have no idea what he was looking at so intently for such a long time)

The following are just a few of my favorite titles:

What Are You Doing Bob?


Bob, the Amazing Starrer


The Interesting Bob


What’s Wrong Bob?


Bob, WHAT is it?


Bob, the Looking Detective


Bob, the Staring Dog Of Memphis


Bob is Sight Seeing!
