Grade: 4
*This is a lesson I taught during my student teaching internship.
Have the student write the letters of their name down the left side of a sheet of paper. Then have them write a phrase or group of adjectives about themselves that starts with each letter of their name.
Have student proofread and revise, then make the final copy on a colored sheet of paper, using somewhat fancy lettering of the students’ choice for their name.
Adaptation: allow below-level writers to write shorter description of themselves and/or assist them in identifying adjectives that describe themselves.
