Provide learners with repeated opportunities to write high-quality descriptions inspired by visual prompts, focusing on atmosphere, imagery, sensory detail and precise vocabulary selection.

This PowerPoint bundle contains multiple descriptive writing slides, each presenting the same core instruction:
“Write a description based on this image.”
The repetition allows teachers to:

model improvement across several writing attempts

run timed writing practice or intervention sessions

build independent use of the 5 senses in descriptive pieces

create peer or self assessment discussions around atmosphere and tension

encourage vocabulary growth through deliberate redrafting

The consistent task structure also supports easy adaptation across ability levels or lesson focuses such as:

Pathetic fallacy (weather reflecting mood)

Sound and movement for tension

Close observational detail

Sensory imagery and symbolism

Emotional or atmospheric tone in settings
