Descriptive
writing creates a “Word portrait,” so what better way to teach that than to use
pictures from old calendars, or greeting cards, pictures from magazines, art
projects, or scenes from your school campus as a writing catalyst?
"Lucy, the sleepy Maupin House mascot, relaxes after a long weekend." |
To get started,
project a picture for the class and work interactively to describe it. Focus on
the Target Skill your class is trying to master. For example, if you are working
on descriptive attributes, you can work together to make a list of adjectives
and descriptive phrases, and then craft sentences to build a description. If
you are working on strong verbs, find an action oriented photo and begin by
listing action words. Start with simple skills like these, and then move to
skills like alliteration, metaphor, personification, or abstract attributes.
After the
interactive model, provide students with individual picture prompts or place an
array of magazine photos at a center and allow students to choose a picture and
complete a craft-based descriptive writing activity. Younger writers should
focus on a single skill for this activity, but intermediate student can handle
applying two or three skills at the same time. As students become proficient
writers, picture-prompted writing can include genre organization, composing
skills, conventions and writing process steps, too.
Put pen to paper and stay creative,

ReplyDeleteSo, when you write a personal narrative essay, don't go to a special effort to make use of bigger words, include more adjectives, or use artful metaphors. Only include those details that really shed light on the theory you are trying to express, or the personal story that you are trying to tell. writing paper service
