Year Six Creative Writing - Elegant Prose



L.O. To ensure you use an ‘elegant’ prose style when writing under timed conditions.

Your prose should be like Audrey Hepburn: elegant.

Tick off the following as you include it in your story:
 Impact sentence
 Compound sentence ( a sentence using the joining comma)
 Complex sentence (a sentence using the bracketing comma
 Brackets
 Colon
 Semi-colon
 Dash

Feeling clever? Try to include all of the above in the first fifteen lines of your story! This is not as easy as it sounds!

Homework: To redraft story written under timed conditions. You may choose to type this second draft. Focus on adding additional shown feelings.
