Presentation transcript:

Foreshadowing The use in a literary work of clues that suggest events that have yet to occur. This technique helps to create suspense, keeping readers wondering what will happen next.

Suspense A feeling of uncertainty about the outcome of events in a literary work. Writers create suspense by raising questions in the minds of their readers.

Imagery The descriptive or figurative language used in literature to create word pictures for the reader. These pictures, or images, are created by details of sight, sound, taste, touch, smell, or movement.

Mood Mood, or atmosphere, is the feeling created in the reader by a literary work or passage. The mood is often suggested by descriptive details. Often mood can be described in a single word, such as lighthearted, frightening, or despairing.
