Show transcript
Rehearsing our storytelling using a text map makes the writing process easier. We can also plan some of the vocabulary we wish to use to have a certain effect. We are going to be writing the build-up of 'Beowulf and the dragon'. We can use rich vocabulary to describe the burned stronghold, the rocky headland and the dragon's body. We can avoid repeating 'Beowulf' and 'the dragon' by replacing them with varied noun phrases.
