The giant squid from 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea by Jules Verne

Today in class we wrote a descriptive paragraph of an animal, creature, or mythical beast based on the description of the cuttlefish from Jules Vernes' 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea. We focused on using specific, descriptive nouns, adjectives and verbs, along with a specific vantage point of the narrator in relation to the object being described. I think the students did an excellent job. Please enjoy reading the student's descriptions above.
