Expression écrite
👻”Through the Woods”
🏚 When he was a child, Edgar used to visit his uncle during the school holidays.
→ Focus on the ‘journey’ to the house and describe the place he used to walk through, then write about his first impressions of the house.
✔️Create a spooky atmosphere: your intention is to convey Edgar’s fears to the reader while creating a foreboding feeling about the place.
✔️ Write in the 1st person (with an internal focus) and use the past tense.
