Homework
due Friday, 25th May 2018:
We have been learning about stories of
mystery and suspense in Literacy and have thought about what we could include
to make them exciting! Use the pictures below or your own imagination to write the
introduction to a mystery story, using between 50 and 100 words. Think about
setting the scene, describing what you could hear and showing how you felt.
Perhaps you could include:
§ Some short, punchy
sentences to build up tension
§ Ellipsis (…) to
create the ‘what happens next?’ moment
§ Description of a
spooky setting
§ SHOW how the
character felt (He shrieked! Sweat poured from her face.)
§ Similes (My heart
pounded like a drum)
§ Rhetorical
questions (What could it be?)
§ Describe mystery
noises and sounds.
