Personal Narrative - March / April Writing

This month we will be writing Personal Narratives. Each student will need to select an actual event from their life they would like to write about. The students will need to bring a picture of this event / memory.

The paper needs to be 5 paragraphs with 5-7 sentences per paragraph.

1st paragraph- Introduction: this will introduce the memory and catch the reader’s attention.

3 body paragraphs: Tell about the experience and what happened. Include vivid details so the reader feels like they were there.

5th paragraph- Conclusion:  Tell the reader how everything worked out in the end.


This needs to be written in first person, have a clear beginning, middle and end.  The student should also include how they felt during the event and how they felt after.
