Session 2 |
The Beast – Planning a description piece In this chapter we are introduced to the creature: Kraken. This week I want you to write a detailed description of a mythical creature. Either: Write a description of a Kraken. Or: Write a description of your own monster. Today I want you to plan your creature. If you are doing the Kraken, watch these videos and record the information on the planning sheet: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rQvDT1_wDtA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PtBwc86Qpjw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kfbLq2GWkz0 If you are doing your own creature, draw a picture on the planning sheet and then add in details. It doesn’t have to be a sea monster, but your detail must be thorough. |
Session 3 |
The Beast – Write your description Use your plans from yesterday to write your description. You should be looking to write 3-4 detailed paragraphs, obviously some will do more and some will do slightly less but that depends on you and your self-drive. MAIN FOCUS – paragraphs Try to describe a feature of your creature in each paragraph. So spend one paragraph talking about the tentacles, what they look like; their strength; any similes. Use the checklist to guide your writing. Remember this is a description as if you’ve seen it, not a report that tells us indepth details of what features are used for. |
Session 4 |
The Beast – Edit and Publish Edit your writing – go back through your writing, make sure you have accurately punctuated your writing and chosen powerful vocabulary to describe your beast. Have you included details for different senses? Have you included details of the full creature? Size? Arms/Tentacles? Eyes? Roar/screech/whisper? Etc. When you think it is the best bit of writing you can do: Publish your description on Purple Mash 2Do. |
