For your blog post this week tell us about what you love doing over your break. Do you and your family have any traditions that you share in every year? Maybe you have an annual hockey tournament or a vacation somewhere. Who do you always look forward to seeing? I would love to hear what you plan on doing over the two weeks we are apart. Add great detail and really show what you are looking forward to in your writing. Make sure you edit your work before you submit it.

Holiday Traditions
The Holiday Break is almost upon us!! I know over the holidays I look forward to a few different traditions. The first thing I love doing is Friends Christmas. All of my dearest friends come over, we play games and make a fabulous dinner. The evening is full of laughter and sets the rest of the mood for my holiday. The second tradition I have is with my family on Christmas Eve. My mom’s entire family comes together and we have a meal that is typically all or mostly seafood. The rest of my break is spent relaxing, enjoying some winter activities like skiing and winter hikes.

Make your friends HUNGRY!
For your blog post this week, I’d like each of you to think in your head about what your favourite food in the whole world is! Picture that food in your mind, how it looks, smells, tastes, sounds when it’s cooking. Have you got it? Good. Now here’s the challenge, can you write a descriptive paragraph that doesn’t mention what your food is but describes it so well that your classmates can guess what it is? The world of food and wine website has some great words that you can use to help you in your challenge!
Here’s an example:
“It’s colour is burned a deep amber hue, the outside hard, crunchy, almost black with flavour. The smell is powerful, smokey, and tantalizing. As I take my sharp knife and cut through the bark, the heat rises out in steamy tendrils. I pour the thin, vinegary barbecue sauce into the glass bowl, with the piled up meat. It’s rich, meaty smell hits my nose and I use my knife and fork to cut through it. The taste is strong, meaty and delicious and as I put it on the bun, I cannot wait to bite into it!
