3 Powerful Ways to Start a Composition (With Examples!)
Not sure how to begin a Primary School English composition?
Discover three engaging techniques to hook your reader. The first paragraph of a composition is like the opening scene of a movie. It sets the tone and pulls the reader in. Many students struggle with getting started, often falling back on generic phrases like “One sunny day…” or “The school bell rang…“
To make your story stand out, try starting with Action, Speech, or Sound. In this post, we’ll explore all three techniques using the same scene.
Scene: Students playing soccer during recess
Poor Example: One sunny day, my classmates and I decided to play soccer during recess.
A strong beginning grabs your reader’s attention and draws them into your story. Encourage your child to practise each technique and see which one suits their writing style best!
