WORDS PAINT A PICTURE

My best friend Numbat came to me wanting to share about his summer.

 

We had been on vacation many weeks and I knew he’d have stories to tell me… about who he’d met, what he’d seen… when he went to where he had gone… why he left… how he traveled each way.

 

When I asked him, “So what did you do over break?” He replied, “I just hung out at home.”

 

Could you please elaborate?

Who, What, Where, Why, When, How?

You’ve got to explain a little more…

Close your eyes and recount!

Paint me a picture with your words.

Words paint a picture.

 

He stopped to think and squint his eyes, and then he opened them wide and smiled. He said, “My brother, mom and dad and I got to see a real crocodile!”

It turned out he had boarded a plane and flew down to Miami Florida to visit his uncle and his aunt that he hadn’t seen in something like seven years!

Then he said, “Oh yeah, and we went to a zoo…”

 

Could you please elaborate?

Who, What, Where, Why, When, How?

You’ve got to explain a little more…

Close your eyes and recount!

Paint me a picture with your words.

Words paint a picture.

 

“So I went to Zoo Miami. It was so cool. We saw elephants, crocodiles, otters, baboons… believe or not, I stood three feet away from two very large hippos who started to play… their bodies were massive, their jaws like shovels. We saw black rhinos, electric eels, and a toad. We saw flamingos, koalas, tigers (my favorites!)… um… I guess that’s pretty much it.”

 

Could you please elaborate?

Who, What, Where, Why, When, How?

You’ve got to explain a little more…

Close your eyes and recount!

Paint me a picture with your words.

Words paint a picture.
