Context

Hello, little writers! Today, we will embark on an adventure through the world of words. We will learn to write different words, discover their meanings, and how to use them in our stories.

Words are like puzzle pieces, and when we put them together, we form sentences, and when we put sentences together, we create stories! Thinking about words as puzzle pieces can help us understand how they work, because just as puzzle pieces fit together to form a picture, words fit together to form a sentence.

Introduction

Writing is one of the most important skills we can learn. Through it, we can communicate, express our feelings and ideas, and learn new things. And one of the bases of writing is words.

Words are formed by letters, which, when organized in a certain way, create a specific sound. Each sound we hear is represented by one or more letters. But that's not all! Words also have meanings, which are the ideas or things they represent.

Now, just imagine the power we have when we learn to write words! We can create our own stories, our own ideas, and share them with the world. And that's exactly what we're going to do in this project. We're going to learn how to write many words, and then we're going to use them to create incredible stories!

Are you ready, little writers? Let's go!

Hands-on Activity: "Word Adventure"

Project Objective

The objective of this project is for students, in groups, to explore writing words and their functionality, in addition to developing socio-emotional skills such as collaboration, problem solving, and creative thinking.

Project Description

Each group will receive a "Word Kit", containing cards with written words and illustrations representing these words. The group's task will be to create a story using all the words in their kit.

Necessary Materials

• "Word Kit" (can be made with handmade cards)
• Paper and pencil to write the story
• Drawing materials to illustrate the story (optional)

Step by Step

1. Group Formation: Students should be divided into groups of 3 to 5 members.

2. Delivery of the "Word Kit": Each group will receive a "Word Kit". They should examine the cards, read the words, and try to understand what each one means.

3. Story Planning: The group should plan the story they will tell. They should think about how they can use the words from their kit and how they can fit into the story.

4. Story Writing: With the planning ready, the group should write the story. They can divide the tasks, each one writing part of the story, but everyone should contribute.

5. Story Revision: After finishing writing, the group should review the story. They should check if they used all the words in the kit and if the story makes sense.

6. Story Illustration: If the group wants, they can illustrate the story. This can help visualize the story and make it more interesting.

7. Story Presentation: Finally, each group should present their story to the class. They should read the story aloud, show the illustrations (if they have any), and explain how they used the words from the kit.

Remember, the most important thing is to have fun and learn together! Have a great journey in the Word Adventure!
