                                                               Who am I?

-               ❤I am a genre of writing; the only form that can be used in all other forms of writings.

-               ❤ I use adjectives, adverbs and figurative language to describe a person, a place or a 

           thing.

-               ❤I show rather than tell

-               ❤ I require the use of all five senses

-               ❤ I create a vivid picture in my reader’s mind

       Who am I?

I am 'Descriptive Writing'. The tree of life. I add life to your pieces of writing.

Bet your last dollar once you can master me you can master any

other writing…….

In a descriptive piece of writing the author does not tell the audience what they smell, 

hear, see or touch, instead, they describe or show the readers using vivid and colourful 

details. These authors select a set of word and phrases carefully that paints a picture in

 the reader's mind making them feel as though they are part of the story or the story is 

evolving right before their eyes.

 The following picture tells us some of the things we can consider when describing.

             In light of what was learnt in class about descriptive writing and the impact it has on a 

piece of writing, I will like us to put our descriptive piece to the test. 

                           Remember:
