I recently assigned a writing project to Brian. He was supposed to use the "5-paragraph model" (introduction, 3 supporting paragraphs, conclusion), and he was to write about characteristics or qualities that you would and/or wouldn't want to find in a babysitter. I chose this topic because he's been trying to convince me that he's old enough and mature enough to "be in charge" of Evan while Ed and I are away for brief periods.
Being Brian, he opted to stretch his wings a bit, and do his own version of the "5-paragraph model".
Here goes:
Hello ev’ryone, my name is Brian.
I’m a babysitter and I’m not lyin.
I’ll explain the best and worst parts of babysitters.
(The babies are also called “little critters”.)
No. 1 is energy that is first rate.
Energy is what made the world great.
Energy is awesome. Energy is fun.
That’s why energy is No. 1.
No. 2 is anger because that is bad.
Anger just makes us sad.
Anger fed Spidey’s new suit.
That is why anger is No. 2.
Last one is patience, that is good.
That is what helps carvers carve wood.
It is what helps inventors invent.
Also what helps mentors ment.
This is what I wrote about.
Come on ev’rybody, let’s all shout!
That is what it’s meant to be.
Ouch! I just banged my left knee!
Anyone need a babysitter? :-)
