Descriptive writing!

Last week the Senior Room wrote some excellent pieces of descriptive writing. We had two objects that we had to describe; an old, dirty toothbrush and some slime that Bree had made.

The students had to describe the size, shape, texture of the object and say something to do with number in their pieces of writing. They then had an own choice description.

"Descriptive writing is the art of painting a picture with words."



The Toothbrush

The toothbrush  is the size of 18.8 cm and the size of a small water bottle


The toothbrush feels wet and hard with good grips and bristles


The shape of a rectangle and a oval mixed
It has got hundreds of grips and bristles

Brayden



The toothbrush was as long as a pen. Its length was 18.8cm. long.

The tooth brush was soft in places, with bits of white, black and a little bit of gold.

It has hundreds of bristles that clean your teeth.

Holly


The 18.5 cm toothbrush is the size as my Chromebook screen.

Its got hundreds of little prickly bristles at the top of the toothbrush.

On the back of there is little prickles its white with some green spots.  

It feels hard in some places and squishy in others.

The toothbrush is the shape of an long thin oblong.

The Slime

The slime is the size of a small ball.
It felt sticky like glue.
You could mould the slime into any shape you wanted.
There were two types of slime.
It smelt like a small tub of borax.

Ally

The slime can go from a ball the size of a golf ball, to being stretched to the length of  a 20 centimetre ruler.

It feels like a slug moving all over your hand.

The slime is any shape you want it to.

You can separate it into as many blobs as you want to.

The slime is a bright pink colour.
