The 'ed' sentence.
Try starting the sentence with the ‘ed’ form of the verb. It makes for a punchy start to the sentence
Remember the rule- when you have finished your -ed phrase, place a comma, then write the rest of the sentence.
Some ‘ed’ words you can use- surprised, excited, committed, undaunted, determined, overpowered, concerned, cornered, delighted, enthralled
Examples:
Determined to win, Tony pushed himself harder in the last meters of the sprint.
Concerned for the well being of others, the Prime Minister passed new laws.
Surprised I got to see my aunt,because I have not seen her in ages.
Excited I got a new puppy, it was soft and cuddle.
Earlier in the morning, I had to get up to go out for the day.
