Description

Let's write descriptive writing leads! Here are 20 popular writing hooks that students can use to enhance the beginnings of their narrative and informational writing! Each anchor chart states the name of the "writing hook" and gives examples to help students produce their own! These pair nicely with my Writing Conclusions Charts.

These charts come small enough to fit into student notebooks for easy reference. They save space only taking up 2.5 pages of the writing journal if all 20 are used! They also come in the standard paper size to hang onto your wall or to make a classroom reference book! Blank charts are included to create additional hooks or student-made examples! This product now includes a full-page for students to write hooks found within mentor texts- fits perfectly into journals!

Writing Hooks include:

  • internal monologue
  • dialogue
  • description of setting
  • description of character
  • descriptive words
  • questions to ponder/wonder
  • intense moments
  • action words
  • strong feelings or emotions
  • onomatopoeia
  • repetitive words or phrases
  • lists
  • flashback
  • personal experience
  • dilemma
  • opinion or advice
  • definition
  • figurative language
