Synopsis

Need an activity to help you teach a specific language arts skill? You're likely to find it in this new book of activities, all loosely centered on a theme of interest to all―food.

Language Is Served includes word games, writing prompts, lessons, and writing activities that involve research, creativity, and application of skills studied in class.

Activities include:

  • Cheesy Rhymes,
  • Appetizing Antonyms,
  • Sizzling Synonyms,
  • Dishing up the Internet,
  • You Are How You Eat,
  • Delicious and Disgusting, and
  • Overstuffed Sentences.

The author uses a sense of humor to teach serious writing skills and to engage students in playing with words and language―an important step in learning to use our language skillfully.
