show not tell

Today we were learning about show not tell which is like you don't tell them the emotion you use body expression and her face
Milly was shocked.
1. Her body tensed.
2. Her eyes widened.
3. Her face turned white.
Turning slowly white like the moon her heart beat million beats a minute. Slowly Milly's body became as still as a snails.

Jack was excited
1. Started Jumping up and down.
2. Talking so fast you can't hear the words.
3. He started to hyperventilate.
Jumping so high you could mistake him for a kangaroo that had eaten too much sugar. Talking so fast all he could hear was a hum ringing in his ears.

Lolo was sad
1. Her eyes glazed over.
2. Her lip quivered.
3. hung her head.
Slowly her eyes glazed over and she hung her so low that she could have seen all the way to the other side of the world.

Ben was sick.
1.  His face was green.
2. He ran to grab a bowl from the kitchen
3. He sighed with sickness
Ben wheeled over with his face a putrid face of green. Running as fast as he could he ran to the kitchen to the sink
