Students randomly choose two characters, setting, situation and theme and use them to write a narrative! Simply cut up the cards provided and place into cups (labels provided). Students use the planning sheets to plan their story in a method of your choice (draw, mind map, or write.) These sheets also include versions with a built in checklist for students to make sure they have included their story elements in a narrative with a beginning, middle and end! There are also various writing pages included to meet your needs. Some include space for teacher comments, peer evaluation and self assessment. There is also a writing sheet provided for their finished narrative. Basically, this product includes everything you need to spice up narrative writing with your students!
