Story Telling

It's great that you are thinking about the "News of Castro!" You're more aware of events going on, things happening and possibilities for stories.

Good writers are very observant of their surroundings and can recreate events by using great word choice. Remember, you are telling the story to people who might not have been at an event or don't know about a certain thing.

You have to be descriptive and have many details.

Objective: I will outline a story by focusing on the 5W and H. I will also determine what questions I would like to ask other students or teachers.

Language objective: I will share my ideas with a classmate by explaining what type of story I am writing and what details and descriptive words I will chose.

Assignment:

Write the "News of Castro" or begin work on a video. You'll need a topic and you'll need to think out your questions and who you are going to talk to before you go.

You can also tell a story by having a series of pictures. Decide first how you are going to set up your "picture story." What pictures will you need? What order will you put them in?
