Narrative Short Stories 2014-2015: Volume 1
During the first year of narrative story writing unit: Journey to America, students created a true narrative story about their journey as a refugee/immigrant to America. Students read examples of other narrative stories, went through four editing workshops and created a finished product on the FlipSnacks book hosting site. Hard copies of the stories were also created and put together in a class anthology.
