Written by Adi Ackerman, Head Teacher

A personal narrative tells a true story from the writer's life and shows why it matters. There are 9 sheets for 8th grade here. Personal Narrative on an Unlikely Friendship drafts dialogue with action beats, Narrative Plan That Opens at the Moment You Earned It uses a flashback, and Tell Your Most Memorable Day Through One Object frames a story with a kept object. A narrative writing rubric scores the finished stories. The sheets practice W.8.3 and W.8.3.A, B, C and E.
