Learning Objective

I can improve my writing by adding details and clarifying ideas.

  • 1

    Effective descriptive writing involves 'showing' rather than 'telling', allowing the reader to build a strong image.

  • 2

    To enhance descriptive writing, pay attention to details, use vivid verbs and precise adjectives, and include multiple senses.

  • 3

    Descriptive writing should be organized chronologically, by order of importance, or spatially to create a clear and coherent picture for the reader.
