Mohill Young Writers' Group, Week 5


This week was all about alphabetical lists.
The game, 'An Alphabet of Adjectives', involved three rounds. In the first, an animal was chosen at random and each person had to add a successive adjective in turn, without a pause, e.g. attractive antelope, bold antelope, and so on. The second round changed both the adjective and the noun, e.g. Furious fish, gorgeous giraffe, etc. The final round took the form of a continuous alphabet, e.g. ancient bear, clever deer, excitable gnu etc.
The writing activity this week also centred on lists. An alphabetical birthday present list was created for some unusual personages.
