article plan (so you think you've got a sweet tooth)


So you think you’ve got a sweet tooth?


Planning Comments
article genre
(purpose, type)
This article will be a factual article informing the reader the dangers and hidden levels of sugar contained in food.
Narrative voice
(1st, 2nd or 3rd person)
This article will be written in a 1st person narrative voice so that the reader feels as though they are having a one-on-one conversation with the writer. It will make the tone of the article feel more personal.
Register
(informal/formal, colloquial, dialect, taboo words?)
The register of this article will be informal and laid back. It will use colloquial language and possibly the occasional mild taboo word.
Stylistics
(repetition, strong verbs, adjectives, alliteration, similes, metaphors, sentencing, rhythm)
The style of this article will be a series of small situations that most females will be/have been in. For example, it may talk about having a girlie night in with wine and pizza then it will explain the amount of sugar hidden in what is consumed on an average ‘girls night’.
Tone of address
(hectoring, sarcastic, ‘matey’, ironic, etc)
The tone of address in this article will have quite a equalised tenor. It will come across as chatty or matey. This will help the article to not sound as though it is ‘telling the reader off’ and more fun as well as being informative.
Structure and pace
(discourse structure, logical paragraphing, connectives, conclusion)
The structure of this article will be a round up article. Each short paragraph will include a common women’s situation and will surround a main image in the centre of the page. The articles pace will be quite fast as the short paragraphs will be quick and easy to read. The sentences will mainly be short although a few longer ones may be added so the article doesn’t seem rushed.
