Lesson details

Lesson outcome

I can write the opening of a narrative based on ‘Jabberwocky’.

Show transcript
The purpose of the opening is to engage the reader and introduce the setting and characters. Using a range of sentence types (simple, compound and complex) improves text flow for the reader. Direct speech is punctuated using inverted commas; dialogue moves the action forward. Notes from the plan can be used to form full sentences. A new paragraph is used to signal the start of a new idea or key moment.
