Answers Will Vary

page 1

Last week in drop-in, Adan was working on his spelling packet. The directions for the first worksheet: "Read the words in the box. Write a story using as many words in the box as possible. Make sure you change y to i before adding -es. Answers will vary." Rather than write the perfunctory cobbled-together prose that usually comes from prompts like these, Adan paid off the assignment with a terrific piece of recursive fiction. Plus he needed an extra page. We'd like to share it with you. Click the image to enlarge it. (The words in the box, by the way, are: doggy, kitty, puppy, cherry, berry, guppy, baby, and butterfly. He used them all).
