Lesson 2: Onomatopoeia Lead Projectable Lesson Tim Hargis © 2012

Hello! Today we are working on….

…coming up with a good lead for our writing!

What exactly is a lead in a piece of writing?

A lead is the beginning of a piece of writing.

A lead is the first thing that a reader reads.

We want our leads to be really interesting so that our readers will want to read our writing.

There are many, many, many different kinds of leads. Today we will learn about just one.

It is called the onomatopoeia lead!

What in the world is onomatopoeia?!?!?

Onomatopoeia Onomatopoeia is a fancy writing word for a noise or a sound in a piece of writing.

Onomatopoeia Examples: –M–My wet gym shoes went squish, squish as I walked down the hallway. –T–The camp fire went crackle, crackle in the night. –T–The bee went buzz as it flew by my ear.

You can use onomatopoeia any place you would like in a piece of writing.

Sometimes it is the perfect choice to use onomatopoeia for a lead in a piece of writing.

Here is a piece of my writing where I used an onomatopoeia lead.

Valentine’s Day Dilemma Tim Hargis Thumpthumpthumpthumpthumpthumpthumpthumpthumpthump….My heart was beating so fast, I thought it might explode as I stood at the end of the driveway looking at my house. It was Valentine’s Day, and I was nine years old. I had just gotten off the bus after a day in the third grade at Pleasant Hill Elementary. In my left hand I held my metal lunch box that was shaped like a mailbox. In my right hand I held a chocolate heart, wrapped in pink and silver aluminum foil. It was that chocolate heart in my hand that was making the real one in my chest beat so stinkin’ fast. The chocolate heart was a gift from Cathy Rodriguez. She was my third grade spelling partner and was the girl who had chipped my tooth in gym class three months earlier. We had gotten over that and had become close—so close, in fact, that Cathy gave me this special chocolate heart on Valentine’s Day right before we got on our buses to go home. My cheeks got all warm and red when she gave it to me. But it made me smile—big—and I smiled on my bus all the way home. I didn’t want to eat it, because I knew if I did, it would be gone. I just wanted to hold it in my hand and smile. When I got off the bus, though, that’s when the smiling stopped.

I stood at the end of the driveway and looked at my house and knew that this chocolate heart could cause me some serious trouble once I got inside. The problem, you see, was older sisters—five of them, and once they found out that a girl had actually given me a chocolate heart wrapped in pink and silver aluminum foil for Valentine’s Day I knew my life would be miserable. They would start singing and chanting, things like, “Timmy’s got a girlfriend! Timmy’s got a girlfriend!” I knew I had to do something. I knew I couldn’t walk in the door of my house and have my sisters find out I had a special Valentine’s Day gift from my spelling partner, Cathy Rodriguez. I had to think fast. The chocolate heart was way too big for me to eat before I got up the driveway. Then I saw it. Sitting by the kitchen door was our garbage can. It was my only way out of the teasing and the singing that I just couldn’t take.

I walked slowly up the driveway, my chocolate heart now heavy in my hand. When I got to the door, I quickly and quietly opened the lid of the can and let that chocolate heart fall to the bottom before going into my home. Thud. The next day at school my spelling partner, Cathy Rodriguez, asked me if I liked the heart. I told her that I did. I said, “It was the best chocolate heart that I’ve ever had.” And I knew it would have been, too.
