What is a descriptive text? This might be the question that come into people's mind when talking about descriptive text. Since I teach this kind of text to the sixth grade. I try to make the explanation simple. I sum up this from various resources.
Descriptive text is a text written to describe something. The purpose of descriptive text is to describe an object, a person or a place. It is expected that the readers can form a picture in their minds.
To write a description, we can use 5 senses. Those are:
- Sight
- Smell
- Touch
- Taste
- Hearing
A descriptive text mostly uses simple present. The structure of the text are:
- Statement (introduction)
- Sequence of descriptive fact
