WRITING SKILLS - HOOKING THE READER IN

What is the purpose of a hook?  Why do we need to put them in our writing?

So the reader will want to keep the reader entertained and the reader will want to stay tuned and want to read more of the story.

What are some different ways we can start our narrative writing. (List and explain as many as you can - remember to look at the posters).

You could use some onomatopoeia or some persuasive sentence starters or persuasive sentences you could use something that happened in the story like SPLAT blood poring out of his head how will he survive then start writing how that happened.

Type in the best hook you have used in your writing this term.

Covered from head to toe in the cow poo smelling thick brown mud as I start to hear death DE fiying footsteps of my mum that you could hear from china and back "MAAAAAAAAAAAAAAX" she yelled.

Explain why you think this is a successful hook.WRITING SKILLS - HOOKING THE READER IN
