Writers Workshop for First Graders - Narrative Writing (Part 1)

In this new class , students will learn how to write personal narratives for first grade.  Students will begin this class with learning how to write a small moment story.
     The students will write about the stories of their lives with detailed events.  They will brainstorm ideas for their stories and add colorful illustrations in their booklets.
      I will begin each class with a mini lesson focusing on specific writing topics. The students will then work on each topic taught in my lesson. I will guide them in adding words, pictures, and the mechanics of writing.
      The students will learn to write narrative text and demonstrate proficiency in punctuation , spelling, and use phonetics to spell words.  They will also try to write two sentences on each page.
      While we write our narrative stories, they will recount two or more events using specific details.  The students will describe people, places, and things that are relevant to their stories.  They will revise their stories with a writing checklist.
