Narrative Writing Project
For this unit's writing project, you will create a life experience narrative. You will work on this project in small chunks throughout the unit. There are two different paths you can take when writing your narrative project.
What to Write
- Write about your own life experience.
- Write about a fictional life experience.
You Must Include
Characters
Setting
Descriptive Language
A Conflict
Proper Grammar
Possible Topics
Possible Topics Could Include
- the addition of a sibling to your family
- a trip or vacation
- starting at CCA
- a conflict with a friend
*Note on 10/29 the writing lesson has a text box to write about what your topic will be about. Please revisit as needed.
Conflict!
The next step in developing your life experience narrative is identifying the problem you overcame. This problem could be something you struggled with inside yourself, like managing new or difficult emotions. Or it could be something more physical like a fight with a friend or a natural disaster.
External Conflict
Internal Conflict
Setting!
Another element of your life experience personal narrative is the setting. Recall that setting is when and where a story takes place. A setting is a story's environment. A setting can be:
- a reflection of a real physical location
- completely made up by the author
- a combination of both
- information about society and what people are like
Sometimes the setting's simple definition makes it easy to overlook. In reality, the setting of a story is extremely important because it can impact the other parts of the story.
