A 2-slide table detailing common descriptive techniques and their effects on the reader.

Ideal for Year 11 Revision, but can be used and adapted for Year 9 and 10 and even, dare I say it, Year 12s or 13s!

Of course, effects will depend on context, but nevertheless, I think it's useful to demystify this part of English and help students see that irrespective of the text, writers use certain techniques to achieve particular effects - and that they CAN be learned!

Can be printed off as is and stuck in books or even around the classroom.

Thank you so much! This is useful especially for students who are unfamiliar with literary devices and their intended effect.
