The document provides examples of using descriptive details about hamburgers to teach descriptive writing. It shows how adding more sensory details like how a hamburger smells, tastes, feels and looks can improve descriptive writing. Starting with one detail and building up to four details is recommended. Additional examples using the same structure for soccer games and Thanksgiving are also included. Templates of hamburger diagrams are at the end.
