Showing not telling

Today for writing we were working on showing not telling. It was fun to share ideas. If you're working on this for your writing than my tip would be to describe what features change in there expression.

Telling-Rowena was furious.
Showing- Burning up with rage, Rowena's face went from the normal innocent girl to a bright red tomato. You could see the fire in her eyes as her body went solid. 

Telling- Tom was excited.
Showing- Eyes glimmering, Toms cheeks rised as he cheerfully ran into his Dads arms

Telling- Kade was shocked.
Showing- Kades face went pale as his Mouth opened and his eyes widened. 

Telling- Sarah felt sad.
A tear slowly went down Sarahs cheek as her mouth frowned.
