Describe Image
Scaffolds and worked examples for Describe Image, with a plain-language explanation of how to use each one.
A four-part shape for describing an image
TemplateOverview: name the image type and its general subject in one sentence.
Key detail one: describe the most prominent element — a label, a peak value, or the largest segment.
Key detail two: describe a second element that contrasts with the first, such as the smallest value or an outlier.
Trend and conclusion: state the overall pattern the image shows (rising, falling, steady, or compared groups) and close with one sentence tying the details together.
This scaffold keeps a spoken description moving forward instead of stalling on one detail: start wide with the overview, narrow to two contrasting details, then zoom back out to the trend. Practising the same order every time builds a habit that survives time pressure.
