Narrative Writing

Today we have been learning how to write the setting in a narrative. Miss Coffer put a picture of a beach up on the Mimio and we had to describe it. We did a brainstorm in groups and came up with a W.A.L.T and  S.C.  Our W.A.L.T was describe the setting of a beach and our S.C. was :
  • Use 4 sentences
  • 5 senses
  • Use adjectives
  • Use similes
  • Use personification
We had to start with "I stood at the beach" and we couldn't use more than 1 simile, metaphor or personification in our description. Below are some examples and some photos of the brainstorms. Enjoy!!!

I stood at the beach tasting a tantalising milky coconut, gazing at the lush green tropics.

I stood at the beach and I saw the rainbow coloured tropical fish gliding through the crystal clear, glimmering water.

The cry of a seagull overhead, sharp and loud.
