Inspire your students to write descriptively using our 20 daily descriptive writing prompts slide deck and graphic organizer.
Adjectives are the paint an author uses to create vivid pictures through their text. 🎨
Â
Their descriptions offer details that transport the audience to a time or place, a feeling or memory, a sensation or emotion. Adjectives involve the five senses, and writers who write with those descriptive, sensory words produce better work.
Â
We’ve put together a fun set of writing prompt slides for 2nd grade and up that are perfect for projecting as morning warmups. These are sure to prepare your students to use language to paint a picture.
