  3. Boy: Tales of Childhood by Roald Dahl When you finish reading, write a brief summary of the story on your slip of paper.

  4. As you read, think about WHAT the author says and HOW he says it. Show your thinking on the text by making notes about what you notice. EVERYONE SHOULD NOTICE SOMETHING!!

  5. Now notice specifically the dialogue. In the margin of your paper, try to write as many dialogue rules as you know or can figure out from the text.

  6. Your Turn!!! • Page 30 • Dialogue Practice • Think about your personal narrative. Rewrite a portion of the story using lots of dialogue. Punctuate the dialogue correctly!
