Sensory writing

We started a sensory writing exercise during Language today.
The students sat on the top level - near the art room and watched all the action on Norodom. They recorded what they could see, hear, feel, smell and taste. They then imagined that they were standing on Norodom Blvd trying to cross the road and added more feelings to their brainstorm.

When we went back to the classroom we shared or ideas and descriptive words. The students created their own plan and will start writing a descriptive piece about standing in front of the school and crossing the road tomorrow.

We will use his strategy throughout this unit. Drawing on our senses to create rich, detailed and emotive writing.
