Vitamin Water: Flavor “You” Ever wanted to tell your story in 2-3 sentences? Vitamin Water does it for each of their different flavors. Can you describe your flavor?

Make sure you get an index card. Brainstorm what words you could use to describe yourself – 3 words that describe your attitude, 3 words that describe your personality, 3 words that describe your life. Turn to the person next to you. Discuss what words you chose and why. Get to know your classmates! Decide on the best word for your Vitamin Water Bottle.

On a scrap sheet of paper, draft a short paragraph describing who you are and what you are all about using your brainstormed words. Be creative! Make sure to use descriptive language to create an image in the reader’s mind. Copy your finalized paragraph/label onto the white sheet of paper that I gave you. After you finish all of your writing duties, you are free to draw designs on your “flavor label” or leave it plain. It is your decision.
