Four Fun Descriptive and Creative Writing Games
This writing bundle regroups 4 games to practice descriptive writing with children who like to write AND those who hate it. The goal is for all the children of a literacy center, a classroom or of a family in a homeschool setting to participate in a description of something that each student imagine a part of . At the end they discover how is the object, animal , place or person that got described. Perfect activity for differentiating or multi-level classes. This game stimulates creativity and imagination . It is also very engaging as it has a big part of mystery as the children can’t wait to discover what their peers will imagine and write so they can unveil the final product .
Very little prep , and easy to play. For second grade up to 5th grade or even 6th grade.
The First game totally for free!

In this bundle you will find four different describing activities:
- Describing an imaginary animal
- Describing a mystery place
- Describing a funny character
- Describing a genius invention
How to play :
- Print the cards and cut them out. Print as many copies of the other pages as needed for your students.
- Distribute the cards to the children. If you play with a large group of kids they will pick only one or 2 each. In a small group, for a literacy center or in a homeschool situation, the kids will have quite a few cards and more sentences to write. You can give less cards to younger or less advance children.
- Kids get as much stripes of paper as they have of cards , on them they will write a description as the cards instruct, without telling the other children what kind of place, animal , person or invention they are thinking about.
- When everyone is done the teacher picks up all the descriptions and put them back in order. All the different ideas of the kids are compiled to make up a full description of the mystery place person ,object or animal !
- Write the full description on the back board correcting mistakes if needed. Have fun reading it aloud! Then kids can copy it on their work sheet and make an illustration.
