Writers are learning to use a storyteller's voice when they write! We have been thinking about the difference between writing a summary of something that has happened and writing a story about something that has happened.
We are getting really good at spotting the differences between summaries and stories.
Here are some of the things we include when we are telling a story:
- descriptions of actions
- dialogue
- sensory descriptions (sounds, sights, smells, tastes)
- descriptions of images around the storyteller
Our third grade writers are doing a great job making their readers feel like they are right there in the story by including these elements in their writing!
