Writing Workshop Activities:
Narrative Writing Challenge
I am excited to understand what you can do as writers of narratives, so today, will you please write the best personal narrative, the best true story, that you can write? Make this be the story of on time in your life. You might focus on just a scene or two. You'll have only 30 minutes to write this true story, so you'll need to use your first copy as your final copy. Write in a way that allows you to show off all you know about narrative writing.
*Write a beginning for your story.
*Use transition words to tell what happened in order.
*Elaborate to help readers picture your story.
*Show what your story is really about.
*Write an ending for your story.
Self Reflection
Use the writing checklist to rate yourself and your current ability to write your best narrative.
Setting up to Write
