Oral Language - Roll-a-Story

We worked with a buddy to tell a story. They were imaginative stories. We were encouraged to include descriptive language. This activity was to develop our oral language and vocabulary.

explained our thinking and gave each other feedback. 

We had some very clever ideas and great success!
