Sometimes our students need help with their stories. It could be what to write about, how to start or what words to use. My students LOVE these mats and I have seen a great improvement in their writing after using them.
What worked best for me was to print these (double-sided) on coloured paper, then laminate. I also made additional copies to send home with students or you could keep copies in homework folders. These word mats can be used for numerous activities so I hope you find them useful!
Included in the 11 pages:
-Character appearance & personality
-Character thoughts & feelings
-Figurative language
-Senses
-Openers
-Verbs & Adverbs
-Setting choices, description and openers
-Alternative Adjectives
-Persuasion
-Language for various genres
If you like this, I also have a resource with an overview of narrative writing that you might find useful.
