Today we are going to start our first narrative (story). Using the picture below, you need to imagine what might be going to happen, or perhaps why this is happening; what happens next? What could go wrong? Anything is possible – this is your story! 🙂

REMEMBER THE PARTS OF A NARRATIVE ARE:
SETTING
CHARACTERS
COMPLICATION
EVENTS – at least 3
RESOLUTION
ENDING
We are going to learn how to use a piece of blank paper to plan each of these sections, so you will never have to have a planner from the teacher again. 🙂 Today we want to finish our PLANNING so that tomorrow we can start our DRAFT in our Draft Writing Books!
REMEMBER TO: 1. PLAN 2. WRITE YOUR FIRST DRAFT (Write like a writer) 3. PROOFREAD (Read it again, like a reader); 4, EDIT (make all the changes you can – spelling; adding details; changing words (vocabulary)); 5 PUBLISH (your good copy); 6. SHARE – read it to a peer or use the Author’s Chair to read it to the class. 🙂
