Description

Good descriptive writing is supposed to paint a picture, so what better place to start than with a photograph? This activity prompts middle school students to write powerful, descriptive words for beautiful scenery, scrumptious food, colorful creatures, and various other sights worth describing well.

Each photograph is accompanied by a specific descriptive writing prompt, and many of these prompts include challenges to include certain types of figurative language in the descriptions. This product can be printed as a journaling packet for each student, or the pages can be printed individually for in-class group work. The possibilities are endless!
