Writing
Today’s focus is how to write direct speech.

Read through the start of my narrative and write what Grandpa Nono and Tony might say. Re-watch the video here.

Remember speech must have:

– A verb that tells you how the speech has been said, whispered, gurgled, mumbled, screamed…
– Add story detail in between the different characters speech.
