Writing a Narrative


Include these in your narrative...
 
 
Senses: see, hear, touch, smell, taste


Personification: giving an object/animal human qualities (e.g. the sea roared)


Similes: describing something using ‘like or as’


Language: exciting and extended vocabulary


Long and Short Sentences: vary your sentence structures for effect


Adjectives: describing words (colours, textures etc)


Adverbs: describing HOW things are done (quickly, quietly etc)


Alliteration: two or more words beginning with the same letter or sound in a sentence



For a C grade:


  Use of 1st person (I)

  Present and Past tense throughout

  Paragraphs - different lengths and linked by

appropriate connectives so structure is clear.

  Ideas must be sequenced purposefully.

  Varied vocabulary – for precise meaning

  Exciting adjectives

  Specific verbs and adverbs

  Similes

Alliteration, rhetorical questions, repetition, humour,

sarcasm, triples, emotive language, personal pronouns.

  Simple sentences

  Basic complex sentences

  Split main clause sentences

  Adverb starts

  Accurate use of speech marks if appropriate

  Commas in lists and complex sentences

  Spellings of simple words always correct and most others usually correct.
