Personal Narritives. Amber Brown

Amber Brown. Here's how I did it...


After reading these 2 books:




we talked about the friendship that Amber shares with her best friend, Justin Daniels. From there, we began writing our personal narratives about our best friends. Here is the story that I modeled {I showed it to my friend, Sarah, and she cracked up :)}:



I had the students close their eyes and imagine their best friend: what they look like, things they like, what they do with their best friend, why they are best friends. We spent a lot of time talking about things to include in their papers. First, I had the kids write a rough draft in their journals. Then, I helped them edit the spelling and punctuation.
