1. Math Mates. Term 1 Sheet 5 (Due Thursday) 2. Complete Fact File research 3. Guided Reading homework 4. Ba Da Bing this sentence. The children set off for Mikumi. Post your answers in the comments section below. We have been looking at ways to enrich our writing and this week I showed you a technique called Ba Da Bing. The goal of good writing is to engage the reader so much that they can visualize the experience they're reading about. This requires the writer to use craft that helps the reader almost feel like they've "slipped into the skin" of the writer or character. We find that students leave out lots of details in their writing that would help the reader construct these images. Often, they simply tell that something was scary or fun leaving the reader to fill in the sensory details of that moment. When you Ba Da Bing a simple sentence there are 3 steps/questions you must consider: Can you Ba Da Bing this sentence: The elephant walked to the watering hole.
