Monster descriptive writing activities are a fantastic way to build descriptive language skills and vocabulary in students. Work on descriptive language techniques including:

Adjectives
Similes
Character traits - inside and outside
Using your senses to describe a monster
Describing a monster's home

This resource includes lots of practice activities, brainstorm pages and writing templates. There are also blank versions for students’ own monsters.

ADJECTIVES, SIMILES AND CHARACTER TRAIT PAGES
Students can use the templates to brainstorm adjectives, similes or character traits of their own monsters. They can also develop these skills on the practice monsters- 13 different monsters are included.

USING SENSES TO DESCRIBE MONSTERS AND WHERE THEY LIVE
Students can use these templates to brainstorm adjectives, similes or character traits of their own monsters. They can also develop these skills on the practice monsters- 13 different monsters are included.

I am always amazed at the quality of writing that students produce when we do monster descriptions!
