Contents:

Page 1 – Cover: On the cover, children write the title, draw a picture, and write their own name as the author of the narrative. (Title and picture can be left until last, if desired.)

Page 2 – Finding out about narratives This page has information about narrative, and gives examples to help children learn the structure, and textual features of narratives.

Page 3  My Narrative Plan On this page, children plan the narrative, using the correct generic structure (beginning, middle and end). Examples of some of the questions asked are: How will I begin? Where is the story set? What problem will the characters have?

Page 8 – How well did I write my narrative? On this page, children are guided through an evaluation of their narrative. Criteria for the teacher’s assessment are also provided.
