The main goal of writers is to create such vivid details that the reader can easily form a precise mental picture of what is being written about. The author may accomplish this by using imaginative language, interesting comparisons, and images that appeal to the senses. Today students started to brainstorm how to describe the picture below, creating a story using their senses.
What do you see?
What do you hear?
What do you smell?
What do you feel?
What do you taste?
Ask your child about his/her ideas for their story!
