Description
This Halloween descriptive writing task includes everything you need to support your less able students and stretch your gifted ones for high quality writing.
First, students explore ideas for describing a pumpkin, bat or skeleton as individuals, or in pairs or as a class, using the visual prompts on the first sheet. Some students might wish to express some of their ideas through color as well as words.
Next, share the differentiated word bank of sensory words to support and stretch your students as needed.
Included are banks for sight, sound, smell and touch - taste is not included, but you could always do this as a separate bank or as another collaboration project. There is also a vocabulary bank for verbs.
The outcome will be interesting and vivid descriptions of the humble pumpkin, misunderstood bat and spooky, scary skeleton. Enjoy!
