Struggling With How to Teach Narrative Writing?

You’re not alone! While many teachers see narrative writing as the most fun to teach, they also see it as one of the most difficult writing genres to get students up to speed with. There are so many components to a narrative piece, and sometimes, students need a bit of extra push to get their ideas rolling and the stories flowing. The best way to get the process started is through a bit of shared reading, direct instruction, and discussion surrounding the parts of a narrative and what those parts look like. This year, we’re excited to help you out with those narrative writing lesson plans with an all-in-one Narrative Writing Teaching Slide Deck to help you deliver that all-important instruction.
