Year 6 - Sherlock Holmes: Setting the Scene



Over the next two weeks we are going to secure our knowledge of how to structure the first 15 lines of a short story.

Learn more about the Red-Headed League here. You can listen to a podcast of 'The Red-Headed League' here (try refreshing the page if the player fails to load).

Homework: Write an eight-ten line description of Sherlock Holmes' rooms in 221b Baker Street, using the floor plan to help you! Include as many of our descriptive techniques as you can; don't forget that the best writers make sure they use a varied prose style as they write.
