Student Thesaurus

My kids are so smart:) Last week they worked together to come up with synonyms for "said". As a class they generated over 60 words that could be substituted for "said". Had I asked them beforehand how many they thought they could identify I am sure their estimate (and even my own) would have been much lower. What amazing minds God has gifted them with-and the ability to work together in our brainstorming-piggybacking off of other ideas. I'm excited to see how their ideas will show up in their writing this week and in following assignments:)
