Students are working on their narrative story regularly in class starting today. They will have the rest of the week to work on their rough draft, and will have computers available to type their final draft starting Monday.
In the classroom, we do a mini lesson each day focused on one part of the narrative. Below are the resources from the mini lessons that are available on the resources board in the class, as well as here if students want to work at home. Please feel free to use them at any time to help with your work.
