This document discusses the importance of using imagery in creative writing. It begins by providing examples of non-imaginative statements and how adding sensory details through imagery brings those statements to life. It explains that imagery appeals to the five senses and allows readers to visualize what is being described. The document then discusses how imagery works on a physiological level in the brain to elicit an emotional response from readers. It emphasizes that while abstractions, generalizations and judgments are important for communication, vivid imagery is what makes writing come alive by engaging the senses. A single descriptive sentence from Margaret Atwood is used as an example of how imagery can efficiently portray multiple senses and ideas with just a few words.
This document provides 15 rules for determining whether to use a singular or plural verb with different subject types in the English language. Some of the key rules covered include: using a singular verb with subjects connected by "or" or "nor"; ignoring prepositional phrases when determining the verb; "none" can be both singular and plural; collective nouns like "staff" can take either a singular or plural verb depending on whether the group is acting as a unit or individuals; and pronouns like "who" or "which" take the number of the noun immediately preceding them. The document aims to clearly explain the various rules in order to help the reader properly select singular or plural verbs to match subjects.
- The document discusses the suffixes -able and -ible and provides tips to help determine which suffix to use when spelling words.
- -able and -ible both mean "able to be" and are used in words like readable, eatable, audible, and collapsible.
- Tip 1 for -able words is that it is the more common suffix, used in hundreds of words, so it is statistically more likely to be correct. Tip 2 is that if the root word stands alone, it usually takes -able.
- For -ible words, the tips are that there are a limited set of common words that take -ible, and the root is less likely to stand alone as an English word.
The document defines and provides examples of different types of irony: verbal irony uses sarcasm to express the opposite meaning of what is said, dramatic irony occurs when the reader knows something a character does not, and situational irony involves unexpected situations that are opposite of what was expected.

This document discusses pronoun-antecedent agreement errors. It defines pronouns and antecedents, explaining that pronouns replace nouns and antecedents are the words pronouns replace. Pronoun-antecedent pairs must agree in person and number. Common errors occur with indefinite pronouns like "someone" and singular nouns that could refer to either gender, like "a teacher." The document provides examples of agreements and errors.
This document discusses how to draw conclusions from clues and context when reading. It provides several short scenarios and asks questions to encourage drawing conclusions. Some key conclusions are that the pizza was bad so people threw it out, the boy got sunburned, someone is feeling sick with fever, it is someone's birthday based on the celebrations, and Mia doesn't like loud singing. Making conclusions involves using evidence from the text and one's own background knowledge and experiences.
Subject-verb agreement rules dictate that:
1. Singular subjects require a singular verb form while plural subjects require a plural verb form.
2. When subjects are joined by "and", they take a plural verb form unless the subjects themselves are already plural.
3. Irregular plural nouns like "children" and "oxen" still follow subject-verb agreement rules.
Expressions of time, money, weight or volume take singular verb forms even though they are plural in form. Proper identification of the subject is needed when sentences begin with "there" or "here".

There are three main types of irony: situational irony which occurs when the opposite of what's expected happens, verbal irony which uses words to convey a meaning different than the literal meaning, and dramatic irony where the audience knows something that characters in a story do not, creating suspense until they learn the truth.
The document discusses pronoun case and types of pronouns. It defines pronouns as words that take the place of nouns and explains that pronouns must agree in case with how they function in sentences. The three pronoun cases are subjective, objective, and possessive. Personal, relative, indefinite, reflexive, and intensive pronouns are described along with their uses and forms. Examples are provided to illustrate proper pronoun case.
The document defines and provides examples of fronted adverbials. A fronted adverbial is a phrase placed at the beginning of a sentence that describes when, why, how, where, or how often an action occurs. Fronted adverbials must be followed by a comma. Examples are provided such as "Early one morning, I went for a walk" and "Due to the lockdown, Thornhill Primary School was closed." Readers are instructed to write their own sentences using fronted adverbials for when, why, how, where, and how often.
Modals are helping verbs that express the mode or manner of actions indicated by main verbs, such as ability, possibility, probability, permission, and obligation. Modal auxiliary verbs have functions like expressing ability, possibility, probability, permission, and obligation. This PowerPoint presentation provides an overview of modal verbs and their functions in grammar.
Possessive nouns use an apostrophe to show ownership or belonging. For singular nouns, add 's to form the possessive. For plural nouns ending in s, add only an apostrophe. For other plural nouns, add 's. Possessive nouns can indicate something belongs to a person, place, or thing, or describe a characteristic of the noun.

For each figure of speech, it explains what it is through a definition and enhances the explanation with illustrative examples. Overall, the document aims to explain these key rhetorical devices used in language in a clear and accessible manner.
This document discusses reflexive pronouns and provides examples of their use. Reflexive pronouns end in "-self" or "-selves" and refer back to the subject of the sentence or clause. Some key points made:
- Reflexive pronouns are used when the subject and object are the same person/thing, for emphasis, or to mean "also" or "too."
- They are also used with "by" to mean "alone," as in "She went by herself."
- Examples are provided to illustrate proper usage of reflexive pronouns like myself, yourself, herself, ourselves, and themselves.

Hyperbole exaggerates to make a point. Litotes uses understatement by denying the opposite. Metonymy substitutes a part for the whole or vice versa. Examples for each figure of speech help illustrate their meanings.
The document discusses the literary device of hyperbole. Hyperbole is exaggerated language used for emphasis rather than being literally true. The document provides examples of hyperbole in the song "It Will Rain" by Bruno Mars, such as references to taking medication to cope with a breakup and the skies always being overcast if the relationship ends. Caricatures are also mentioned as a type of visual hyperbole that exaggerates physical features for effect.

Timbre allows listeners to distinguish between different sounds and songs. It enables recognition of individual voices and notes in a piece of music. The song "Imagine" by John Lennon has strong timbre that makes it very recognizable. Different instruments like piano, drums, and violins contribute different types of timbre to the song.
The document discusses different types of imagery used in poetry. It defines imagery as the use of vivid description that creates mental pictures or images in the reader's mind by appealing to their senses. There are five main types of imagery - visual, auditory, kinesthetic, olfactory, and gustatory - corresponding to the five senses of sight, hearing, touch, smell, and taste. Good poets use imagery to present their subject matter in a way that engages the reader's senses and imagination.
The document provides guidance on using imagery in writing. It defines imagery as description that engages the five senses. Several exercises are presented to help writers practice using imagery, such as describing a scene in detail or coming up with metaphors for common objects. The document emphasizes showing rather than telling, avoiding generalizations, and using concrete and evocative language to help readers visualize what is being described.
Our perception is influenced by expectations, language, and interpretation. We adjust how we perceive things and use context to resolve ambiguity. However, perception is limited by our biology and neurobiology. For example, we cannot perceive things that happen very fast or slow, or we may have conditions like visual agnosia that limit recognition.
This document discusses imagery and summarization techniques. It defines imagery as using words to evoke the senses. Sensory writing replaces abstract ideas with vivid images that convey meaning through physical details. Good imagery uses concrete and significant details that connect to larger themes. The document provides examples from Russell Banks' short story "Lobster Night" and prompts readers to analyze how the story uses imagery and sensory details to evoke emotions and ideas. It also includes an exercise where readers describe a feeling or idea through the senses using a food as an example.
The speaker is recalling dancing with their father as a child. In the first stanza, the speaker describes clinging to their father as they waltzed drunkenly around the kitchen until pots fell from shelves, upsetting the speaker's mother. In the second stanza, the speaker notes their father's battered hand holding their wrist tightly and missing steps, scraping the speaker's ear on a buckle. The last stanza describes the father beating time on the speaker's head with his dirty palm before waltzing the speaker off to bed still holding onto his shirt.
The document discusses the five senses and various literary devices used to appeal to and describe sensory experiences, including imagery, sensory impressions, analogy, and different types of imagery like visual, auditory, olfactory, gustatory, and tactile imagery. It provides examples of how these devices can be used in writing to make descriptions more vivid and relatable. The document concludes with an assignment asking students to work with a partner to compose a song using one type of imagery and following a specified format.
Whether he is discussing the singleminded intensity of Picasso’s Guernica, the parallel violence and alienation in the art of Francis Bacon and Walt Disney, or the enigmatic silence of his own mother, what binds these pieces throughout is the depth and fury of Berger’s passion, challenging us to participate, to protest, and above all, to see.
The document discusses how guided imagery is used in sports psychology to help train athletes' mental skills and regulate their emotions. Research has found similarities in brain activity between physically performing a movement and mentally imagining it, allowing sport psychologists to use imagery as an effective training method. Individuals can use tools like video, equipment descriptions, and information sheets to help them form vivid mental images for their specific sport when using guided imagery.
