This pack contains seven interactive posters illustrating different ways in which a writer can begin a story in an engaging way. Each poster uses an arresting image to suggest a story and these are accompanied by model opening sentences. Children can use these sentences as inspiration for their own writing.

Blank word balloon templates enable you to use the children’s own ideas for display - pupils can find great opening sentences in books they have read and add these to the posters in the balloons provided. Pupil worksheets are also included, which can be completed independently.
