Composition
COMPILED BY ALAN ANAND



    1. Tenses
Always use past tense when writing a composition, not present tense.

    2. Length of Sentences
Do not use long sentences , write sharply and precisely.

    3. Introduction of Characters
Before bringing in a character, introduce it first.

    4. Use of Inverted Commas
When a character is speaking, you will need to put in inverted commas (“ ”)

    5. Story Sequence
Please follow the skeleton structure of the compo and emphasise on the solution and problem.




That’s it, folks!
