QUESTION 1
Question 1.1
Define what multimodal storytelling is in your own words. Include three examples
of multimodal storytelling as part of your answer here.
Multimodal storytelling is a way of telling a story using more than one form of
communication at the same time. It does not use only words, but also pictures, sound,
movement, or video to share meaning and make the story clearer and more interesting.
Examples of multimodal storytelling include a picture book that uses text and
illustrations, a movie that uses images, speech, music, and sound effects, and a digital
story or social media post that combines written text, photos, and videos.
Question 1.2
List two benefits of multimodal storytelling.
Two benefits of multimodal storytelling are that it helps learners understand the story
better because information is shown in different ways, and it makes stories more
interesting and engaging by using images, sound, and movement instead of only words.

Ruth Donnelly’s ‘The Car Trip’ may be classified as a modern poem. What is the
main characteristic of modern poetry?
The main characteristic of modern poetry is that it uses simple, everyday language and

or old-fashioned topics.
