Descriptive Writing - Part 1
28 Setembro 2016, 16:00 • Hilda Alexandra Prazeres Eusebio
Students analyzed texts identifying the main 'mood' or 'tone' of the piece and the corresponding descriptive tools/techniques.
Texts analyzed included:
- an excerpt from The Magic Metal Tube by Maxine Hong Kingston;
- an excerpt from Inside District School #7, Niagara County, New York by Joyce Carol Oates.
Students went on to do a descriptive writing exercise outside. The exercise consisted of:
- observing their surroundings;
- choosing a mood;
- describing everything they could see, hear, taste, touch and smell.
This exercise can be finished at a later date and handed in as one of the descriptive homework assignments.
