Hi, Miss Sarah! I wanted to share a recent descriptive I wrote about a similar topic: the Northern Lights. I usually go with narratives over descriptives, but this time I had no choice haha. Though it is a writing thrown together during the late night, I hope it's not too bad! I'm giving my FLE paper in the 2025 Feb/March series, and honestly, I'm terrified, but your videos have kept me going. The Dance of the Heavens Huddling amongst the safe haven of the tall, snow-capped mountains, I took in a deep breath - the crisp, chilly air electrifying my soul. Not a single soul was awake, all the cubs cuddling close to their mothers, shielding themselves from the shivering cold. Gentle, white snowflakes descended the sky, blanketing the lonely ground, their numbing cold providing a strange solace. Dunes of endless white stretched as far as the eye could see, setting a misty chill in the frosty air. Puffs of white froze with every breath, forming clouds of peculiar shapes. A brisk walk led me to a shimmering, tranquil, mirror-like expanse, perfectly replicating the stage of the starlit sky set above. Looking up at the speckled sky through my iced over eyelashes, the stars shone dimly, awaiting the entrance of the cast. I held my breath; the show was about to begin. A heavenly rift was cut into the fabric of Nyx, revealing vibrant ribbons of light from another realm. Weaving an intricate tapestry of colours, it was like Mother Nature’s very own theatre, not meant to be witnessed by mortal eyes. After the show of spotlights, a ray of dazzling, teal light accompanied by a warm, taffy pink one made its grand entry. Perfectly matching and complementing each other’s silent rhythm, the green ribbon twirled around the pink one amidst the elegant jumps. The slow, smooth waves of light were punctuated by faster, rippling ones, illuminating the sky in a turbulent swirl of icy blues and fiery reds. They danced to their heart’s content, demanding the attention of every onlooker. It was indeed a graceful, mesmerizing performance, an out of body experience orchestrated for the Gods that no one could tear their eyes away from. The chasm in the cosmos was slowly woven back together, sealing away the hidden theatre from mortal eyes. The sky blushed orange as the celestial body ascended its throne, flooding the world below with delicate rays of warmth - loosening the frost’s grip on snow-capped peaks. Despite the commanding presence of the celestial, it’s warmth could not melt the wonder I felt - the magic of the northern lights forever dancing in the deep realms of my heart.
Thank you for sharing! It's a wonderful description. Your vocabulary and use of punctuation is particularly impressive. A wide range of lovely images - very successful piece of writing :)
Personally, I'm an o level student and I'm going to be appearing for my English CAIE in May/June 2025 exams. I'm not a IGCSE student, but I'm been wanting to polish my descrpitive writing skills. Thank you for the amazing tips!
You're welcome! I'm actually looking for beta testers for a writing course I made for my website. It's got lots of video lessons for narrative, descriptions and response to text (letter/articles). If you'd like free access, send me an email: sarah@taughtly.co.uk All you have to do is let me know if you spot any errors so I can fix them before I release the course to the general public :)

@@Taughtly Thank you so much😄
Hey, I'm mesmerised by your piece of description. How have you managed to attain such mastery in description writing?
@ There’s no secret but to read as much as humanly possible 😄
@taughtly Thank you for all the amazing tips. How much time would you recommend we spend on planning a narrative essay in a 1 hour exam ?
