In Ms. G's second grade class, they are working on using adjectives in their paragraphs. Each group got a "missing person" and their task was to use lots of describing words in order for their missing person to be found. Once they completed their paragraph, they read them aloud to the class. Peers had a blast listening for the clues to help groups find their missing person! What a fun activity! #VanguardPride
