Synopsis

Students learn how to write personal narratives, using picture books as models. After being immersed in read-alouds that focus on key story elements—character, plot, setting, movement through time, and change—students create their own story time lines, write promise sentences, stretch their stories, and more. Week-by-week planning calendars help teachers map out their reading and writing lessons. For use with Grades 1-3.
