Think of interesting characters,
a setting for your story,
and a plot.
What problem will your character(s) face?
How will the problem be solved?
An engaging narrative includes thoughts, feelings, details, description, and dialog.
These things will bring your story to life for the reader!
I love this song about writing a personal narrative.
Turn up your speakers!
The lyrics are typed below, so you can sing along.
Thanks Mr. Laughton!
Write
me a Narrative…
Beginning,
Middle, and a Clear Cut End
Go on
and tell me about…
Where
you’ve been,
Moments
small or big,
or
you can…
Make
up a tale from your imagination!
Kick
it off with a strong lead.
Make
it interesting.
Let
us know who’s in it,
and
the problem they’re facing.
Build
up the action,
and
pace your story right.
Make
a solid sequence,
and
use transitions
that
help your story flow all the way along!
Bring
it to a close with a
LESSON
or
REFLECTION
or
Some
kind of THOUGHT.
Write me a Narrative…
Beginning, Middle, and a Clear Cut End
Go on and tell me about…
Where you’ve been,
Moments small or big,
or you can…
Make up a tale from your imagination!
T. F.
and Triple D
Will
make your words a story…
Thoughts
and Feelings
Details
and Description
and Dialog
Will make your story strong!
We
want to
Feel
what you feel.
See
what you see.
Make
it as real as it possibly can be.
WE’RE
ALL ALONG FOR THE RIDE
and
we see it through your narrator’s eyes!
Write
me a Narrative…
Beginning,
Middle, and a Clear Cut End
Go
on and tell me about…
Where
you’ve been,
Moments
small or big,
or
you can…
Make
up a tale from your imagination!
Make
it your own creation.
IT’S
TIME TO WRITE
BECAUSE
THE WORLD IS WAITING.
