ELA: Theme and Fantasy
Today you will be creating your own story! Fantasy, mystery, realistic fiction; the choice is yours! The only rule is, it must tell a story of bravery. Can you think of a character who shows bravery? What do they want? What are the challenges? How do they react?
Plan out your story using a story mountain graphic organizer, and then draw and write your final copy in the storyboard graphic organizer. These are both placed in your Reading Folders.
When you are done, post your storyboard to the Seesaw assignment or on the May E-Learning Slides.
Continue reading your book club agreed upon pages, and post your jots to padlet using your initials and date.
