Write Your Own Story project

For the rest of the marking period we will be working on our own story writing. We have already begun this process with our slide-writes for idea inspiration and our story maps with information about the characters, setting and parts of the plot. This story needs to have an element of mystery to go along with the theme of mystery in "The Westing Game." You may make the story spooky if you would like since it is due right around Halloween, but please remember to keep it appropriate. This will be a three chapter story with a minimum of three paragraphs per chapter. Each chapter will include the following parts of plot from your story map...

Chapter 1
Introduction
Problem / mystery

Chapter 2
Problem / mystery continued
Climax

Chapter 3
Falling action / resolution
Conclusion

Remember every paragraph needs to include proper sentence structure (think Big Mac P's) starting with a topic sentence. You will be graded for you work in class, your story writing process (slide-writes, story maps, peer-editing, writing sessions) and your final story. Have fun and be creative!

Chapter 1 rough draft written in notebooks is due tomorrow, October 10th.
