Lesson details
Key learning points
- The purpose of the resolution is to resolve a story, tying up its 'loose ends' and solving the characters' problems.
- When we plan, we log precise and ambitious vocabulary to help paint vivid pictures for our reader.
- Dialogue is the written conversation between two or more characters within a narrative and it moves the story forward.
- A plan is written in note-form, out of full sentences.
- Some vocabulary choices are more precise than others.
Keywords
Plan - a framework that writers create before they write a section or whole text
Notes - written out of full sentences
Ambitious vocabulary - high-level language in writing that meets the text's purpose
Dialogue - the written conversation between two characters or more within a narrative
Common misconception
Pupils may think they can write a narrative by briefly explaining each key moment.
It is important we choose a range of adjectives, verbs and adverbs to include in our plan that creates a full, descriptive narrative. The reader needs to be able to 'see' the pictures we paint with our words.
