Tomato Tasting

Today in Room 6 we went and picked some of our school vegetables that the Eco-warriors have been busy growing. We picked some lovely tomatoes to inspire our days story writing. We brainstormed describing words to help make our writing more interesting to the reader - here are some of the words we came up with: Juicy, Red, Shiny, delicious, and Round.
