Writing: Wrapping it all up

Writers, you have reached the end! Literally, it is now time to start writing the end of your fantasy story. Watch the introductory video to learn about different ways you might end your story. And much like the introduction, it is best to try out a few different endings before choosing the one that fits your story best. If you haven’t started typing your story yet, please make that a priority today. You can ask for help with the typing if that makes it easier for you.

  • First, watch Imaginative Narrative #9 Video above with Mrs. Boyer
  • Use the slides as mentor texts: Imaginative Narrative #9 Slides
  • Write at least two different endings, then choose one that fits your story.
  • Share it on Seesaw tell me about your two versions, and why you chose this one
