III. Our first paragraph that will be for a grade will be a "Narrative" paragraph. This simply means that you will write a paragraph where you will tell a story. Your story needs to be one specific memory - something that happened in one span of time.

In Chapter 3 (pages 26-30), choose one of the pre-writing methods and start planning your Narrative paragraph. Come up with an experience you've had that you may want to write about. Try to choose an experience/memory that has a purpose to it - a lesson to the story, etc.

In class on Thursday, we'll turn your pre-writing into an outline for your Narrative paragraph.
