This resource focuses on describing setting during creative writing.
It begins with a starter which focused on personification and teaches learners how to use personification and create it.
The resource then shows a number of winter settings and encourages learners to describe the setting using the five senses. This can be printed as a page for learners to complete independently or in small groups. Alternatively, it can be completed as a whole class on the interactive whiteboard.
The resource then talks the learners through the process of planning. This resource uses the story mountain format which has been attached as a pdf.
Finally, the resource gives a modelled story opener to discuss with learners.

This is a sensory story I created for my topic 'seasons'. This was written for a PMLD/ CLDD class.
I have written it with the sentence, the sense, the sensory experience and what I and my TAs are looking for and observing throughout the sessions.
Repeat story throughout the term to enable the child to develop anticipation, investigation, awareness, preference and much more.
Could also be used in an EYFS KS1 class.
Can be used with various Keys stages right up to GCSE level. This is a lesson which encourages creative writing based on the theme of winter. Students would need to have completed a study of figurative language and know how to use a thesaurus before attempting this task.
Love and Relationships lesson. A fully differentiated and resourced lesson that analyses the use of language within Owen Sheers’ classic poem Winter Swans. Throughout the lesson we look at how the writer builds up atmosphere using pathetic fallacy, personification and winter imagery, before switching our focus to how both the couple and the swans are represented. A brilliant lesson for KS4 students preparing for AQA English Literature Paper 2 and easily adaptable for younger students.
20 winter themed Key Stage 2 (KS2) or early KS3 imaginative / creative writing story starters cards, featuring high quality photo prompts, vocabulary banks with descriptive words, prompt questions and more. Ideal for the winter months, with ideas for cold and snowy day stories, winter holidays and wintry setting descriptions. There is no reference to Christmas so you can use them with students who don’t celebrate Christmas and use in January and February as well as in November and December. These full-page story generators can be used across a range of abilities and ages, especially in Year 4, 5, 6 and 7 (Y4 / Y5 /Y6/ Y7), to spark ideas for stories. They’re great for reluctant writers and they have a dyslexia friendly format. PDF format (not editable for licensing reasons).
You can purchase this as part of this Creative Writing Story Prompts BIG BUNDLE 100 Prompts!
Use as warm ups, early finishers activities and as a framework for free writing sessions

A word bank and suggested openers to add variety to their writing
A box at the bottom reminds students to read their work aloud, check for full stops and capital letters and common spellings
UK and US English versions included, with spellings and references to ‘full stops’ and ‘periods’ etc amended as appropriate
Designed to offer maximum support for dyslexic learners and those with similar barriers to learning. Verdana font and spacing used are both dyslexia-friendly and the background colours are designed to reduce glare. Both the UK and US cards are also included with the background colours removed and could be used if printing on dyslexia friendly paper or card.
Could be used to support the writing of a full story
Could also work well as a regular tool to support struggling writers in one-to-one or small group sessions, where students write a few sentences inspired by the prompts, without worrying about completing a story
