Day 4 - Analyze Narrative


Personal narratives tell about a time in a person's life. To understand how to write a narrative it is important that we read examples from other's lives. Choose one of the narratives found in the book Short Takes provided in class.


  • Complete the following document on your own (paper copy provided in class).

  • Write a summary paragraph over the story you read, include each area from the organizer in your summary.

  • Post your response for the class to read.


*If you are reading this away from class, you will need to get a paper copy of the stories from me to complete this activity.
