Lesson details

Lesson outcome

I can write the beginning of a traditional tale, introducing the characters and setting.

Show transcript
Traditional tales are mostly told in the past tense. The beginning of a story introduces the main characters, setting and plot. Two ideas can be joined using the joining word 'and'. When a sentence has two adjectives before a noun, a comma is needed between them, such as 'excited, adventurous pigs'. An adverb describes a verb; adverbs can describe how something happened, such as ‘proudly’.
