Setting Descriptions

Once they had completed their description it was then shared with another member of the class who was tasked with drawing the setting they were reading,
Rebecca: “I thought that some members of the class didn’t add enough detail to their descriptions and it made it hard to add detail”.
Miraaya. “I really enjoyed drawing Jamie’s setting description as I was able to add lots of detail to the setting”.
