A mentor sentence is a well-crafted sentence that can be found in any text. We look at sentences pulled from a text that we are currently reading in the classroom. Mentor sentences serve as examples for students of what good writing looks like. They are a great source for identifying different elements of writing, including grammar, structure, and style. Mentor sentences model good writing!

“In writing. Don't use adjectives which merely tell us how you want us to feel about the thing you are describing. I mean, instead of telling us a thing was "terrible," describe it so that we'll be terrified. Don't say it was "delightful"; make us say "delightful" when we've read the description. You see, all those words (horrifying, wonderful, hideous, exquisite) are only like saying to your readers, "Please will you do my job for me."
