I have recently taught a descriptive writing unit, and devised this assessment to gauge how students descriptive skills have progressed over the term. It includes the question paper, the mark scheme, and the reading insert.
Formal enough to ensure that the students took the assessment seriously, but engaging enough to ensure that all students wanted to complete all of the tasks, (they hate some of the practice exam questions that exam boards provide on the past papers) all of my students seemed to enjoy completing this more than they normally enjoy assessments!
The assessment is designed to gauge students' skill in:
- Defining and giving examples of descriptive devices;
- Identifying descriptive devices in texts;
- Analysing the effect of descriptive writing in a vivid description of a 'Nightmare World.'
- Creating their own descriptive piece about a their own nightmare world.
This lesson can either be bought individually, or as part of the Descriptive Writing Big Bundle (which works out cheaper.)
