Planning an emotive narrative scene in 'Whale Rider'

The purpose of climactic writing is to take the drama to the highest point of tension to evoke emotions in the reader. A very emotive scene in ‘Whale Rider’ describes Paikea's encounter with stranded whales on a beach. Precise and ambitious vocabulary, including 'show-not-tell' language, is used to convey an emotive atmosphere. Direct speech and characters' inner thoughts are used to convey their emotions. Notes in a plan should not be written in full sentences and bullet points can be used to make notes clear.
