We are learning how to write narrative stories

This term in Room 4, we are learning how to write narrative stories.

Please assist us and your child by reading narratives such as fairy-tales at home and discuss the following

What is the setting of the story (place)

Who are the characters?

What happened first?

What is the complication?

What is the resolution?

You can even ask your child to write their own narrative.

For further ideas please check out the following website
