Write about what you saw. Give me 3 good paragraphs about SPRING. Describe it for me. Use your 5 senses.
First read...
You are going to read someone else's write. At the end, make a comment. Write about what you are thinking. Positive comment. What could they add (details, questions, or comments)? Or things you liked? Or questions you have about the event? 
Second read...
You are going to read someone else's paper. What do you wish you knew? What do you wish they had included? What do you wish they would add? Be kind in your questions, but ask new questions. What details do you wish they would include? Think who, what, when, where, why, how?
Last the best of all...

Tell me the best things you saw as you read. What do your classmates do well? What compliments can you give your classmates? What do you see your fellow writers doing? What is one compliment you can give someone?
