Narratives--reading and writing
ELA6R1 Students have begun reading some narratives in our literature book and working with plots, characters and settings.
ELA6W2 Students will use these examples to begin writing an autobiographical narrative. With all steps in the writing process, students will be using the general topic of "Celebrations" to prewrite and compose a narrative piece with an emphasis on creating plot, characterization, and setting in their writing. A packet of information for the students will include a proofreading checklist, a narrative writing assessment, a plot diagram, a sensory details chart, transition words, and a rubric. The writing will be mostly completed in class with a peer editing session. The final piece will be finished at home either in ink or typed with proofreading a must.
