Moon Goons

Our class has being learning all about the MOON this week! Today we got to do a fun activity for writing. We created our own "Moon Goons" and then described them in our writing. What creative kiddos they are! 


I modeled by making my very own Moon Goon. (They love to watch me do anything artistic!!) Here it is below:



We drew out two slips of paper from the baggie to NAME our MOON GOON.  On each slip of paper was a make-believe word. When you put the two words together, you get a funny name. 



Look at the mess we made!!! :) How fun that was for them! But I assure you they cleaned it all up!














Students wrote sentences to describe their "Moon Goon". This gave them practice using adjectives and details in their writing.

This student highlighted all the adjectives he used! 



Catherine made a life size Moon Goon.
