Did you know some dogs have jobs? A Captions Lesson
Hey Superkiddos! This week we'll be working on captions. Do you know what captions are? Well, go ahead...guess!
Captions are words that tell about a photo or picture. Did you guess correctly?
I know how much most of us lovelovelove dogs, so I found this cool photo album with lots of good captions about dogs. Actually, all the information is in the captions!
Here's a challenge...what kind of information do the captions include? What are the words saying in every caption? Are there things that are NOT in captions?

AW, we miss you!
AW, hope you feel better soon! Some of us were worried that you'd moved, so I had to call your house! Your grandma told me you were very sick. We're so sorry you feel terrible. We can't wait for you to come back!
We are now UNsloppy!
After 99 days of school and only cleaning your desk a couple of times, this is what you get!
