WRITING A TENSION SCENE

You did a great job writing a full story last week – using a sizzling start, pebble, rock, boulder, climax and ending.  Today you are going to learn a strategy to write a tension scene. 

TENSIONS SCENES ARE LONG AND STRONG!

CHOOSE ONE OF THESE OLYMPICS BMX ACTION PHOTOS AS YOUR TENSION SCENE.

YOU ARE GOING TO WRITE A TENSION SCENE ABOUT THAT PHOTO USING THE 5+1 SENSES.

WORKING IN A GROUP OF 4, YOU NEED TO WRITE DOWN ALL YOUR IDEAS FOR EACH SENSE. (TIMED 2 MINS)   – ONE PERSON TO SCRIBE
SEE
HEAR
SMELL
TASTE
TOUCH
FEEL (emotions)

THEN YOU WILL HAVE 5 MINUTES TO WRITE YOUR OWN TENSION SCENE USING AS MANY OF THE IDEAS YOU GENERATED AS A GROUP.
