Brainstorming
Your two sentence horror story must have a setting, characters, and a descriptive plot, just like a full-length story, so do some brainstorming:
WHO - Who are the main characters? How are they described in the story?
WHAT - What is the scary story about? What is the problem?
WHEN - When does this story take place? What is the time of day, time of year or season, and is it set in the past, present or future?
WHERE - Where does the story take place? How is the setting described in the story?
WHY - Why is the main character in danger? Is it resolved?

Peer revising
After you have finished your first draft, swap your work and revise each other's work.

Follow  4 steps to provide feedback on:
1. sensory details
2. verbs (werkwooden)
3. nouns (zelfstandig werkwoorden)
4. own input
 

Slide 19 - Tekstslide

1. Where does the writer need to add sensory details to describe sights, sounds, smells, tastes, or touches? Underline any parts of the two sentence horror story/poem where the writer could add sensory details.

2. What verbs did the writer use? Circle the verbs in the two sentence horror story /poem  and then list them below with suggestions for stronger verbs that could be used instead. For example, looked could be replaced with stared. Use a thesaurus to help you.
3. What nouns did the writer use? Box the nouns in the two sentence horror story/ poem above and then list any below that you think could be more specific. For example, car could be replaced with a specific make and model like a ‘68 Mustang Convertible? List them below.

4. Any other comments or suggestions?
