Writing Narrative

I am learning to write a narrative story.'ll know I can do this when my stories have:

- Character - Setting - Introduction - Problem - Climax - Conclusion

- Descriptive language such as smilies and metaphors - Character speech using speech marks

This is my narrative plan.

This is my narrative I've been writing. It is about Lily T and about her personality.

Something I found hard was finding out what her personality was.

Something I learned was how to write a narrative plan.

Creative Writing - Scripts

We are learning to write scripts to create a play.

We know we are successful if our script has:
- multiple characters
- a setting
- character speech
- stage direction (in a different colour to the speech)

Once we have written our scripts we are creating the plays using Puppet Pals.

My play is called "The Forest Journey"
