Writing
We will be focusing on how to edit and improve our work. Watch the video here to see how to do that. When we edit our work it’s best to read it out loud. This will help you notice any grammar errors. Your next step is to check if you have used all of our key narrative features.
- Setting description
- Fronted adverbials
- Prepositions
- Speech
- Chronological orders.
- Connecting openers (First… Next… After that… Sometime later…)
- Sensory description – try to use all five senses.
Finally, on your final check, can you improve any of the vocabulary that you have used?
