[LM_NET] TAR: ELEM- Thesaurus mini lesson ideas

[Catie Jefferds <CJefferds@NEWARK.K12.NY.US>]

Good Morning- I had a 4th grade teacher ask me this morning if I could do a mini 
lesson with her class this afternoon on the Thesaurus.  This will be a quick (15 
min. max) introductory lesson about what a Thesaurus is and how it's organized.  
I'd like to do something creative and interactive.  I checked the archives and got 
a few ideas, but am looking for more.  Does anyone have a simple, yet exciting way 
to introduce the Thesaurus to 4th graders?

Thanks,
Catie
