This powerpoint guides students through the basics of Frantic's style, using building blocks from their book. This was designed for L6th students who have a already completed my SOW on Homelessness, where Frantic Assembly is introduced (this can be purchased on TES). The information on how Frantic use dialogue and words in their work is not expanded in this powerpoint as it has been covered in more detail in the homelessness scheme (designed for KS3/4). I also sell a tailored writing frame for Edexcel Component 1, which links to this powerpoint and is tailored to support Devised work in the style of Frantic Assembly.
