Writing
Interdiction Stories To begin, each students creates their own planning sheet. Here they make basic decisions about the characters, settings and primary events in the story. Once their plans are complete, we begin writing the rough drafts. The special pages I provide allow them to look at the functions of various paragraphs in the story. We do not try to write the story all at once, but instead look at the parts of the sequence that make the story work. The guide pages Rough Draft - Simple and Rough Draft - Advanced will help focus the tasks necessary for each of the rough draft pages. Encourage the students to create their own Personal Spelling Books to develop vocabulary around story writing. I have included here a simple table of spelling words to get them started.
