  1. NARRATIVE WRITING UNIT This lesson we will: Review our previous learning Read and analyse an example of a build-up Consider what makes an effective build-up Create a checklist of features

  2. The five part story plan: O B D E R Opening Build-up Dilemma Events Resolution

  3. The story so far ….. Claire and Sadie are twin sisters. It is the end of the school day and they are rushing to get home.

  4. The story so far ….. By the chip shop they turned up Filcher’s Alley, to take a short cut to the estate. “ Oh no,” Claire groaned, rummaging in her bag.“ I’ve left it behind! I’ll have to go back. Tell Mum I might be late. See you later!” she yelled down the dark alley. But there was no reply. Sadie had raced on.

  5. Build - up Panting hard, Claire raced back across the empty playground. The school was still open, so Mr Jakes, the caretaker, had to be somewhere. • ‘Panting hard’ Non finite verb starter to show how out of breath she is

  6. Build - up She paused and listened, but could not hear him. “Now, where was it?” she asked herself as she searched through the tray. • ‘paused and listened’ created tension – what might she have heard? • “Now, where was it?” a question to draw reader into wondering

  7. Build - up There it was! Claire picked up her new pen. Mum would not have been too pleased if that had been lost. • ‘There it was!’ connects to previous events.

  8. Build - up She smiled to herself, thinking about her birthday party. It had only been a week ago. Fancy seeing Auntie Joan and Uncle Bill after all this time – all the way from Australia! • All is well – lulling reader into false sense of security.

  9. A build up …. • establishes setting • shows characters start to do something • suggests to reader that all appears to be going well
