I wrote this piece of text to model to the children (In Y6) how to build the tension, as there were no examples I could find for Greek Myths. Everything I could find was very 'factual' and rushed over the details!
I've tried to focus on "show me, don't tell me" where the writer is really thinking about purpose, and how they want the reader to feel (implying, rather than stating the obvious).
I used it as an activity by asking the pupils to text mark the piece, highlighting and annotating techniques, words and phrases that interested them and that built the tension.
I hope it's helpful and saves you time!

This is great. I altered it slightly to get an extract for Egyptians.
