I was helping Kaycie with her homework.
It was a simple reading assignment where she had to come up with five different words for the blank line in the story. I thought this was a great assignment because it would give her a chance to be creative. Something I know she is good at.
The picture above the blank line she had to fill in was of a cat who just popped a balloon while playing with it. I’m already thinking things like “Pop!”, “Uh oh!”, and “Blam!” but this is her work I wanted to see what she came up with first.
We sit there and she is thinking for about a minute or so and she then turns to me.
Kaycie says, “I don’t know about you, but I got nothing.”
