(apple/onion)
• Write a rough draft based on your freewrite.
• Make sure
– your first sentence gives an overall impression of
your object (topic sentence)
– you give lots of specific, sensory details
– you organize the details in a logical way
– you use transitions to help the reader understand
what parts of the object you are talking about (On
the top, next to, around, etc. . . )
22. In-class Descriptive Paragraph – Part 2
• Read all of p. 274 (student example and teacher feedback).
• Exchange papers with a classmate who is finished (I will help to
match you up).
• Read your classmate’s paragraph.
• On the bottom of his/her page, write 2 or 3 useful, specific
comments about how the paragraph could be improved.
– NOT “Your paragraph is boring,” or “Your paragraph is too short.”
– BUT “When I read this part, I want to know a bit more detail about
it,” or “I don’t really understand how big your object is, or what
shape it is. . . ,” etc.
• Write your name below your comments.
23. In-class Descriptive Paragraph – Part 3
• On a new piece of paper, revise your draft to incorporate any
of your partner’s suggestions that make sense to you. Make
any additional revisions you think will improve your
paragraph.

for sentence skills (especially grammar, spelling, and
punctuation).

paper. Hand in all your work, with your final draft stapled to
the top.
