Linoit - Describing Emotions

Description is not as easy as it seems; it is not simply about lumping adjectives and adverbs and voila, you are descriptive. One has to be effective and there are several techniques one can use to make that happen. In order for the class to contribute ideas to how certain emotions could be described more effectively, I created Linoit links for students to describe any given scenario of their choice to describe an assigned emotion.
I wanted to illustrate the intensity of adjectives used and that it is more than using an adjective to describe the emotion; rather, it is about saying what the person says, does or even thinks about.
Collating all these Linoits on OneNote allows everyone to access the works done and to get inspiration :-)
