We have been looking at ways to show how a character is feeling by using a range of vocabulary to imply (hint at) their feelings without explicitly saying the adjective.

For example,

The boy was feeling sad.

The boy’s lip trembled as tears dripped down his cheek.

 

How do you think these characters are feeling?

Try to use SHOW not tell sentences to imply how the person is feeling. Think about their facial expression, body language, what they may say and how they may say it.

Can you think of at least 5 different sentences to show how eachcharacter is feeling?
