FINAL BLOG PROJECT

Think of a machine that you could invent that would make your life easier. Write a story including the narrative elements:
  • character
  • setting
  • problem
  • solution

Your final draft of your story should have 3 paragraphs: a beginning, middle and an end. Remember the rules for writing a narrative:

  • Beginning- Introduce who the characters are and explain their personalities. Explain and describe the setting and where the story takes place.
  • Middle- Your problem is developed and explained in this paragraph.
  • End- Your characters find the solution to their problems in this paragraph. Explain to the reader how the problem is solved and how your characters feel about the problem being solved.

Remember to type your story and have your parents help you with grammar and spelling. All of the blogs and this final writing assignment are Due Monday, October 6th. Good luck! I can't wait to read your stories!
