LC: To manipulate sentences for effect when writing the second part of a story.

The story will now flashback to the events that have led up to Wallace's current situation and then return to the present day.

1. Structure & Organisation

• I have written in the first person ("I", "me", "my").

• My narrative is written in the past tense, with a clear flashback to an earlier time.

• The flashback is clearly introduced (e.g., using a trigger like an object, sound, or memory).

• There is a clear return to the present by the end of the narrative.

2. Language & Style

• I use descriptive language to show feelings, thoughts, and setting.

• I include figurative language (e.g., similes, metaphors, personification) to create imagery.

• I vary my sentence openers and lengths for effect.

3. Character & Emotion

• I show how the main character feels during both the present and flashback scenes.

• I use internal thoughts and reflections to show the character’s emotions and growth.

4. Cohesion & Devices

• I use time adverbials (e.g., Suddenly, Years ago, At that moment) to guide the reader.

• I use transitions between the present and the past smoothly.

• I use paragraphs to separate ideas and shifts in time.
