Narratives
Writing a story (narrative) can be tricky! There are 4 important parts to writing a story:
1. Orientation: The beginning of the story.
2. Problem: What went wrong? (This makes a story interesting)
3. Resolution: How did the characters fix the problem?
4. Ending: Finish off the story.
Our expectation for year 1 is that students would have at least 1 sentence for each part of the story. That is the minimum, and I would encourage all students to push for more. A good goal would be 2 sentences for each section.
You could use scholastic story starters to give you some ideas!
Scholastic story starters will ask you to do something different from my task so please only use the ideas for characters, setting (place) and problem.
