Task 2 – To create a setting description of a scene of your own.

(This
might take two days – one to plan and the other to write it.)

It might be linked to the Ice Palace text – so you might like to create a
setting description of Starjik’s Ice Palace especially as we have not yet
read that part.
Or you might want to describe the empty village where Ivan almost fell
down the well.
Or you could create a setting description from a book of your own.
Or it could be something from your own imagination.
Step one – draw the scene first, make your picture detailed – include
colour etc.
Step two – label the picture with adjectives, prepositions, nouns, verbs
adverbs that you think would be helpful in your writing. (This is how we
planned out our chocolate room writing).
Step three – use the picture to help you write your description.

When you are writing a setting description the aim is to paint a


picture of the scene but instead of using paints and images using
words.
You will need to use – adjectives, nouns, verbs, adverbs and
prepositions.
I need to be able to see your scene in my
head when reading your words.
Success criteria –
