1 page homework on text structure description. Add a passage and questions.
This educational resource focuses on the description text structure, which helps students visualize people, places, things, or ideas through vivid sensory details. The document explains how authors paint a picture in the reader's mind using descriptive language and sensory elements such as sight, sound, smell, taste, and touch. One example provided is the rich imagery of coral reefs, described as 'bustling underwater cities' with a variety of colors and life forms, including corals and fish. The passage invites students to analyze and engage with the description by answering questions about the sensory details and the overall theme of the text.
