Grade 2 · Writing · Lesson 12

Describe My Pet or Animal Friend

Descriptive writing paints a picture with words. When you describe a pet or animal, your reader should be able to close their eyes and SEE that animal — its colors, its size, and the things it does!

What this lesson teaches

1Use the three-part description frame — My pet is… It has… I like… — to describe a pet or animal
2Stack two adjectives before a noun to paint a richer, more specific picture
3Choose vivid action verbs (purrs, leaps, nibbles) to show what a pet does
