Describing Places: Dar Es Salaam

Using an extract from the brilliant Roadl Dahl’s memoir “Going Solo”, students analyse how he appeals to the senses to describe his arrival in Africa for the first time.
Students are then given lots of ideas for places, times of the day, what they can see, hear, smell, feel and they write their own description, just like an expert.
The folder contains a worksheet of the toolkit vocabulary and copy of the Dar Es Salaam extract. All you need to inspire your students to describe places like a professional.
