Descriptive Writing Template (2)

Overview:

This template helps students organise their ideas for descriptive writing by focusing on the five senses: sight, sound, smell, taste, and touch. It encourages students to think about each sense when describing a scene or object, helping them develop detailed, engaging descriptions.

Learning Objectives:

• Plan and organise descriptive writing using sensory details.
• Develop skills in using the five senses to create vivid imagery.
• Enhance writing by including detailed descriptions that engage the reader's senses.

How the Activity Works:

Students use the 5 senses planning template to help plan for their descriptive writing. They brainstorm and record ideas for each sense—sight, sound, smell, taste, and touch—related to the scene or object they are describing. This template helps students organise their thoughts and ensures they include rich sensory details in their writing, creating a more immersive experience for the reader.
