Come and Visit! Writing a Travel Brochure

About This Resource

A free Grade 6 ESL writing worksheet on travel brochures. Students read a model brochure for an imaginary mountain town, identify its features (catchy headline, subheadings, persuasive adjectives, imperatives, facts and practical information), sort persuasive language and plan a brochure for a place they know. Includes a timed lesson plan, an editable Word version and an answer key.

Overview

A travel brochure persuades readers to visit a place. It uses a catchy headline, short sections with subheadings, exciting adjectives (breathtaking, peaceful), imperatives that speak to the reader (Explore the caves!), questions (Looking for adventure?) and useful facts such as how to get there and when to visit. Students read a model brochure for the imaginary town of Pine Valley, answer questions, match features, choose persuasive words and plan their own brochure.

Learning Objectives

Identify the features of a travel brochure.
Use persuasive adjectives, imperatives and questions.
