Inventing Ideas

1.  Welcome to class!   


                                                                                Happy Valentine's Day! 


2.  Extended invention journal-


Grab one or two objects that are calling your name. 

Pick up the ones that make you feel, the ones that make you smile. 

Return to your seat with the object and really, really, intensely observe it. 

Read it if it has words, smell it if you dare. 

Don't taste it, unless you choose the candy hearts, then share with others. 

Close your eyes and just turn it in your hands. 

What memories or stories does this object return to you? 

Think about and access those stories and be ready to share the story about the object with another person.
 

3.  Pair and Share.


4.  Invention time: pre-writing.



5.  The BIG WHY!  Why did we do this?  (Check for understanding)  



Exeunt all!
