🎉 Welcome to Build a Story!- Wild Animals Edition 🎉

Get ready to dive into the exciting world of story writing! In this self-paced class, you'll learn how to create your very own tales by choosing from a variety of characters, settings, problems, and solutions. I'll show you how to weave these elements into the three main parts of a story and the magic of using adjectives to bring your story to life.

You'll get hands-on practice with worksheets designed to guide you through the beginning, middle, and end of your story. Don't worry! If you can't print them out, just grab some paper and a pencil, and you're all set! After class, you'll have time to polish your writing and add your own illustrations.

What You Need to Know:
1. Write complete sentences in English with proper punctuation and capitalization.
2. Understand and summarize the main ideas of a story.
3. Retell a story's events and use both first-person and third-person points of view.
4. Edit your own writing for spelling and punctuation.

Classroom Fun:
-Arrive on time, be kind and polite, speak clearly, and most importantly, have fun!
-Bring your worksheets (or lined paper) and a pencil.
-Answer questions in the chat to show participation!

For Parents/Guardians:
In the second half of the lesson, your child will write one sentence for each part of their story. There'll be time in class to get them started, but they won't have time to finish the entire story in class. Please help your child complete their story afterward, focusing on spelling, punctuation, and capitalization. Encourage them to finish their illustrations too! 

After it's done, upload the paper and your child will receive a certificate of completion! You may also consider hole-punching the pages and putting them in a folder or stapling them to create a cherished keepsake.

I'm committed to actively engaging with each student throughout the story writing process. I will be available to communicate with students before and after class to address any questions or concerns. I'll be checking for introductions from each student and questions you may have. 

You can expect feedback on your story within 48 hours of submission. The estimated completion time for our class, including post-class activities such as editing and illustrating your story, is approximately one week. My goal is to support and guide you every step of the way, ensuring a fun and enriching learning experience.

Let's make some amazing stories together! 📚✨
