\u201c3 \u2013 Part Fiction Story\u201d<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

** Please read the instructions carefully \u2013 Students will be sharing their \u201cFiction stories\u201d at the next class Zoom meeting! ***<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

At school we were beginning to study the beginning, middle, and end<\/strong> parts of a story. In term 3 <\/strong>we were going to practice writing stories with a beginning, middle and end.<\/p>\n

We had also briefly began learning about the difference between \u201cfiction\u201d and \u201cnon-fiction\u201d<\/strong> stories, and we were planning to expand on this in term 3. We were going to begin working more on our \u201cfiction\u201d writing<\/strong>, by learning to use our creativity skills to write stories that are about fictional characters, fictional places and fictional story lines.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Unfortunately, we did not get a chance to delve into this further, however, I have put up some resources and an activity, to have students begin some \u201cfiction\u201d writing at home!<\/p>\n

Please click to enlarge the picture<\/a> to learn about the difference between \u201cFiction and Non-Fiction<\/strong> stories. Please look over the document with your child and discuss what you see.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

After, you read about the difference between \u201cFiction and Non-Fiction\u201d<\/strong> stories, think about ideas for writing your own \u201cFiction\u201d story!<\/p>\n

Remember:<\/span> <\/strong>this is different from when you write in your journal about your own personal experiences! This is a made-up story, you can have any characters you want! Your story can be silly or scary!<\/p>\n

Remember:<\/strong><\/span> it has to be appropriate for school!<\/p>\n

To keep things simple for this first activity, we will be writing \u201cshort stories\u201d<\/strong>, with a simple beginning, middle and end<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Please click to enlarge and read Ms. Yaz\u2019s \u00a0two examples for a short fiction story.<\/p>\n

I choose to do a silly story and a scary story \u2026 Hope you enjoy!<\/p>\n

Fiction Story # 1:<\/strong> <\/span>\u201cThe Boy and the Dinosaur\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n

Fiction Story # 2:<\/strong><\/span> \u201cThe Evil Monster\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Now that you have read Ms. Yaz\u2019s Fiction stories \u2026 it is time to write your own!<\/p>\n

Instructions:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Think<\/strong> and brainstorm<\/strong> about an idea for a \u201cFiction story\u201d<\/strong> that you want to write about<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Remember<\/strong>:<\/span> This is a make-believe story: it can be a funny story, a scary story, a story about princesses, monsters, or dragons!<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Write a simple beginning<\/strong>, middle<\/strong>, and end<\/strong> to your story.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Remember:<\/strong><\/span> There is usually a problem in a story that needs to get solved by the end!<\/p>\n

      Example:<\/strong><\/span> In Ms. Yaz\u2019s story the problem was that the boy wanted to keep the dinosaur, but his mom said no. The solution was that the boy decided to shrink the dinosaur so he could keep it.<\/p>\n

        \n
      1. Draw a picture<\/strong> to go along with each section of the story.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        Remember:<\/strong><\/span> the beginning, middle and end all need a picture to go along with it, and should match what is happening in the story.<\/p>\n

          \n
        1. Create a title<\/strong> for your story<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          Remember:<\/strong><\/span> Titles should be interesting and should make the reader want to read your story!<\/p>\n

           <\/p>\n

          Click to enlarge the worksheet for the 3-part story. You can choose to use the template with lines or without lines. If you do not have a printer, simply take a paper and draw three lines down the middle to create your 3-part story.<\/p>\n

          Template 1<\/strong> <\/a>(with lines)<\/p>\n

          Template 2<\/strong> <\/a>(without lines)<\/p>\n

           <\/p>\n

           <\/p>\n

           <\/p>\n
