EQ 41 How do we differentiate
mood from tone?
EQ 45 How do we create strong
descriptions using vivid words?
 Mood
is how the author wants you
to feel (it’s the atmosphere.)
 Tone is the author’s attitude towards
the subject.
 Imagery involves the 5 senses.
Pictures or words can create imagery
in your mind.
Tone and Mood Watch out! Tone
and mood are similar!!
Tone is the author’s attitude toward the
writing (his characters, the situation) and the
readers. A work of writing can have more
than one tone. An example of tone could be
both serious and humorous. Tone is set by
the setting, choice of vocabulary and other
details.
 Mood is the general atmosphere created by
the author’s words. It is the feeling the
reader gets from reading those words. It
may be the same, or it may change from
situation to situation.
