The plan is to think of detail and description to make our writing more interesting.
We came back to class and shared our ideas. The students then had a second attempt using descriptive words from our class brainstorm.
Here are some descriptive passages .....
I can smell clean, fresh air. It is slapping my face and my hat. It is cold and clean. It makes me heal.
Jiwon
I am sitting in the field. I feel the breeze pass by. I can see birds hopping. I can smell freshly cut grass. I can feel the smooth grass.
Shelby
I see water shooting up and falling on the grass. The water looks hot.
Nikor
I see bugs hopping, jumping towards the grass. i feel the wind blowing in my hair. I hear the Secondary students talking. I can see them going to their next class. They don't look happy.
Seo Yeon
I sit here in silence, with the occasional sound of talking. I see a leaf flutter down and land on the grass. I see a snow white flower planted calmly in the grass.
Jed
I'm having a great time out here. I can see dragonflies rushing by me. A butterfly flutters in the distance.
Teppi
I could hear the Secondary students talking to each other. Chit chat, chit chat. I smell my wooden grey pencil with bold lead inside. i hear a little bird chirp.
