Help Year 7 writers move beyond “it was scary”. This visual, colourful, ready-to-teach PowerPoint teaches the show-don’t-tell principle through the five senses, precise verbs and connotation, simile, metaphor and personification, sentence variety, zooming in and out, and pathetic fallacy. Interactive and hands-on, it includes a tell-to-show workshop and a full write-and-improve task, plus a worked example that redrafts a paragraph in three stages. All example text is original and labelled illustrative, so no set text is needed. Challenge tasks stretch confident writers, and the final slide shows how the skills build towards GCSE English Language. Non-specialist friendly, with prompts on every slide, it works as a full lesson or a cover lesson. 18 slides.
