The Lost island of Roanoke​

​Roanoke Narrative 


​Step 3: Write Your Introduction

Remember, a good story has an interesting introduction. An introduction should have a hook and clearly introduce: 
  • the ​setting
  • the main character
  • the beginning of your story
 Use one of the effective hook techniques to grab the reader’s attention:
  1. Start in the middle of action- "Water filled my mouth and nose as I crashed spectacularly off my surfboard." ​
  2. Use onomatopoeia - "Whoosh! We were off on the adventure of a lifetime!"
  3. Create Suspense- "Suddenly and unexpectedly there was a loud knock on the door."
  4. Use imagery to set the scene -"My heart pounded in my chest and my sweaty hands gripped the safety bar as the rickety roller coaster slowly crept up the rusty track."
  5. Use one word- "Relief. I was flooded with relief when the front door finally opened."
  6. Dialogue- "What do you think you are doing young man?" whispered my father sternly as I tried to stealthily creep back into the house after my curfew.​
