Two worksheets to use for character development when planning a narrative and two worksheets for a broader plan for a narrative. Sheet 1 - describe your character inside and outside. Sheet 2 - Four Fs of characterisation - Friends, Fear (what are they afraid of?), Fire (what would they rescue in a fire, what things are precious to them) and Funny (what is something unusual odd about them?). Sheet 3 and 4 - planning sheets for writing a narrative. On sheet 4 the heart is for the problem as when writing a narrative the heart of the story is a problem that has to be solved.

Teach your students how to start their narratives off with a WOW using this PowerPoint. Never see another boring ‘One day…’. Twelve different techniques are covered - from Onomatopoeia to A Twist to Describe the Setting to Dialogue. Each technique has multiple examples shown.

Problem-Problems and Challenge-Problems in Narrative Writing is a PPt that helps students understand, identify and produce a wider variety of problems or complications when writing narratives.

This PowerPoint combines ‘A Forest Pie’ persuasion techniques with The Wild Woods Dragon Pet Shop. On each slide use a different technique - alliteration, exageration, emotive language and more - to persuade that this dragon would be a wonderful pet!
