For those of you smarties who have conquered your Vocabulary goals, here's a little fun activity for ya! SILENTLY find a partner. Now QUIETLY work together to fill out the Wacky Web Tale of your choice. If you are stumped, there is a Parts of Speech Help button that you can use.
Do a couple, and then when you find one that really makes you laugh, feel free to print it out to take home today. :-)

If you do a couple and decide that you're done, you may quietly work on your own on any of the KEYBOARDING activities below (scroll WAAAYYYYYY down).
ENJOY!!
