  2. What is it? • A coherent story written in chronological order that is interesting, provides good detail and description, clearly expresses the writer’s voice, is imaginative, and does not contain side stories not related.

  3. It MUST have: • A beginning • A middle • An end. Something that “wraps” up the story.

  4. It SHOULD: • Contain dialogue. • Be coherently written in chronological order. • Be interesting and provide good detail and description. • Be imaginative. • Express the writer’s voice.

  5. Remember the following as you write your narrative: • Keep to the story you are telling. Do not stray or go off on a tangent. Do NOT tell a story within a story. • Make sure the events happen in chronological order. Do not skip around in the telling, or jump from one event to another, or suddenly change scene.

  6. Use great vocabulary. Show you have a good command of words that are above and beyond those the average student your age knows. • Use similes and strong verbs to enhance and ‘show’ descriptions. • Have enough details to make the story interesting to the reader. Keep him/her hooked.
