In this course student learn to extract key ideas from a story and then organize that information into paragraphs that can become summaries, variations, book reports or critiques. Goals for Unit 3 are as follows: Identify the story sequence in a narrative story. Make outlines based on the Story Sequence Chart. Summarize stories from outlines and internalize the components of a well constructed story. Know that each paragraph has a purpose. The teaching procedure is as follows: Read & Discuss: We will read a story together and discuss it in terms of the Story Sequence Chart. Create a Key Word Outline: Create a three-paragraph key word outline, noting that each paragraph has a purpose. Brainstorm: Students will brainstorm alternative ways to describe the characters, possible personalities, and way to express their ideas in writing, suggesting synonyms for various nouns and verbs in the story. Write: Rewrite the story in three paragraphs from the outline based on the Story Sequence Chart. Students will submit the assignment for teacher comments and suggestions.

Supply List
Structure and Style for Students: Year 1 Level A. This can be purchased for around $25-$30 on the IEW website (depending if you order it with the binder or not). The notebook can be used for ALL IEW courses that I offer, so you will only need to purchase it one time for all of the courses. It provides one year of materials for a complete writing program. Optional: You can add the book How Jack Rabbit Got His Very Long Ears by Heather Irbinskas for a literature component.

Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
