Artwork and Adjectives
By anita horton

Since we want students to use colorful language in their creative writing when they are describing details about settings, people, and things. It might be good for your students to draw a picture of a place,a character, or a thing that they might be writing about in a narrative ,etc. Then, have them write adjectives around the picture, and draw a line from the adjective to the specific detail in the picture they are decribing. This is a creative way to help them realize they must paint a clear picture for the audience who maybe reading their writing, and to let them practice putting those adjectives to good use in a fun way.
