The Corona Diaries: Day Ninety

Last week one of my third grade students actually had a storytelling assignment.

The goal was to create a setting, establish a set of characters, and devise a plot line based on a sequence of events – in other words beginning, middle, and end.

She also provided a Traffic Light Transition worksheet with phrases such as “in the beginning” or “once upon a time” (green) for the beginning; “later that day” or “in the meantime” (yellow) for middle; and “finally’ or “in the end” (red) for the end.

Needless to say, we had a blast.
