Tall Tales

This past week, with half days, we decided to write tall tales. Some people had to adjust their stories because tall tales cannot have fantasy. We started to get some ideas of tall tales the week before by reading 6 tall tales. Then we spent 20 minutes a day on each half day going step by step over our story. We started with our brainstorms to get magnificent ideas on how to start. Then the next day we began writing it. The next day we continued this, but on the last day we got to partner up and share our spectacular tall tales with each other. That is what we did with tall tales during conference week.
