BLAM! ZAPPP! BIFF!
Nov. 7th, 2006 10:23 amI could whine about the state of my country, or tell people to go vote, but hopefully you can all make that decision by yourselves, as you're all grownups, or whatever. So, instead I will post that I have found the BEST resource ever for the book Click, Clack, Moo: Cows that Type
It's a PBS website that's for deaf and hard of hearing, but it also has games and activities and an online version of the text (go read it, it's a hysterical book) and it's about TYPING COWS! Which is inherently the best thing ever.
I'm using it as an example for my writing lesson "Writers add sound effects to give their stories more detail". When my teacher told me I was teaching this, my first inclination was to use sound effects from comic books, you know, the ones that aren't really real words: BIFF! ZAPPO! KAZAAM! Wouldn't that be great?
Sadly, I'm getting observed for this, so CRASH and HISS it is. XD
But, to conclude?
BLAMMO!
:D?
In more seriousness, I am happy it is Election Day, Because? It's a public school holiday. Booyah.
