Today’s Agenda

• Hear, discuss, and draft personal narratives

• Explore writing about things you learned from others

• Share your partner’s thinking with the class

Gather on the carpet, sitting next to your writing partner.

• Last week we explored personal narratives and heard several selections from Knots in My Yo-yo String.

• This week you will hear personal narratives by some other writers and continue to write your own personal narrative drafts.

• Next week you will select one of your drafts to work on and take to publication.

Patricia Polacco

We read these!

Now let’s read this!

In Firetalking, Patricia Polacco talks about her own life. Today we will read the first half of the book (Pages 1-16).

What challenges did Patricia face as a child?

•Think, Pair, Share

Looking back at page 9, Patricia tells us that she wrote about something her grandmother taught her how to do. What is something that someone has taught you how to do that you might be able to write about?

• Turn and talk

•Be prepared to share what your partner said.

Independent Writing

• For the next 20 to 30 minutes you will write independently.– Write about something that someone has

taught you how to do.– Work on a personal narrative you started

earlier.– Start a new personal narrative about anything

from your own life.

Use Sensory Details!!!

Share and Reflect

• Did you write about something that someone taught you how to do? Tell us about it.

• What other topics did you write about? Tell us about it.
