LO. To be able to draft an introduction and build up for a traditional tale

I ran remember to:

- write an opening which introduces the characters and sets the scene

- describe the events building up to the problem

- use dialogue (speech) between my characters to move the story on 

- include details about when, where and how things happen

If you need a little bit of help getting started, try using the substitution grids below to give you some ideas!
