Reread p.6
The writer has used a list of techniques in order to make the story exciting.

Task: Fill in the table about the writer’s use of language.

Language technique Example Explain the effect on the

reader
Adjectives These give vivid images of the
action.
Short sentences and
punctuation
The use of the three verbs
gives away a sense of danger
showing the wolves in a
dangerous light.

Present tenses (for example

‘he does’, ‘he is doing’)
 PEE
Using your table, write a PEE paragraph about the
techniques the writer has used.
Point: The writer has used a lot of adjectives when
describing the attack of the wolves in the Peter’s
daydream.
Evidence: ‘carrying the smoke right into their
slobbering jaw’
Explain: This shows that Peter idea has worked as
the smoke is going into the wolves’ jaws.
Ninja task: Try keyword analysis
Keyword analysis: The word ‘slobbering’ shows how hungry the wolves
were as a lot of saliva is coming out of their mouths.

EITHER Peter’s point of view OR Kate’s point
view.
