Each bag has items in it.  Looking at the items in the bag, what do the clues tell you about where the person may be going?  Quietly, without BLURTING, write down what you believe the person will be doing after school today.  Try to get the full picture. Think about why each item is needed. Tell as much information as LOGICALLY POSSIBLE. (Don’t make up what you can’t figure out!)
