We have just finished our descriptive writing unit. In our writing, we focused on using the best possible words that we could to help create a vivid picture in the minds of our readers. Students focused on using adjectives to write descriptions that incorporated a variety of senses and on choosing strong verbs to convey their thinking.
Our first piece of writing for this unit was a descriptive paragraph to describe a place that was special to us. After we finished this piece of writing, we used wonderful word choice in the mentor text "I Need my Monster" by Amanda Noll as an inspiration to create Halloween Poems.
