Lesson outcome

I can clearly explain the effects of patterns and contrasts in language and images in Akala's 'The Dark Lady'.

Show transcript
Writers often use patterns of words, phrases and images across a text. Writers may use contrast in addition to patterns in order to emphasise the importance of the pattern. Patterns are effective because our brains are wired to recognise and remember patterns. In the same way that words have deeper meanings and connotations, images can also symbolise something more.
