Descriptive Writing

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Have your class practice using descriptive language in their writing. This resource provides learners with a list of terms and adjectives. For example, one slide shows a picture of a wolf, and then lists descriptions, such as moon howler and woods dweller. The presentation refers to this type of descriptions as kennings, which is figurative language that replaces a noun, usually for poetic effect.
