Winter Wear
The Prompt
Brrr! Winter is here, and it's time to wrap up warm. Think about all the cosy clothes you pull on when the weather gets chilly.
Your task is to choose one special item of winter clothing – maybe it's a fluffy hat, a chunky scarf, a warm pair of gloves, or your favourite winter coat. We want you to write a short paragraph (about 3-5 sentences) describing this item.
Tell us:
- What is it? (e.g., my blue knitted scarf)
- What does it look like? (Think colours, patterns, how big or small it is, any special features).
- What is it made of? (Is it woolly, soft, waterproof, fleecy, smooth?)
- How does it feel when you wear it? (Cosy, snug, warm, itchy, light, heavy?)
- Most importantly, explain why it's perfect for winter and how it helps keep you warm and comfortable when it's cold outside.
Try to use exciting adjectives to make your writing sparkle!
