This PowerPoint was created to help your students paint a picture with their words. So often students do not describe the setting of their narratives. After completing these tasks your students will have a better understanding of how to do exactly that.

This PowerPoint includes teacher instruction on how to use it - 4 different ways depending on the need for your class. The activity is structured around 7 different extracts from well known stories. Students read these and attempt to draw the setting that has been described.

Students are then encouraged to look at their own descriptive writing and improve upon their work.

Let me know if you have any other amazing extracts that should be a part of this document.
