Guided Notes
Key concepts students will learn:
- •
A personal narrative is a story about yourself that includes interesting details and experiences you've had.
- •
The introduction paragraph should grab the reader's attention and set the scene by answering the questions when, where, and who.
- •
The body paragraph should focus on the details of what happened, listing the order in which things occurred at the beginning, middle, and end of the event.
