A Better Depiction

Students rewrite four telling sentences to create vivid showing sentences using concrete sensory details. The sentences, when revised, should form one coherent descriptive passage. This activity strengthens the ability to transform flat narrative statements into imagery-rich descriptions. Learners practice using vivid verbs, sensory clues, and specific details to help the reader visualize the scene. By combining the revised sentences, students also build skills in paragraph cohesion and descriptive flow.
