| Activities: Journaling Assignment Students will write in a daily reading journal. They will be required to write at least 2 pages each day after the assignment is given. These pages should be the student's summary and reaction to the text. This could be done in various ways. One way would be a double entry journal. For instructions on this format, see here. Another way to do this is by giving students question prompts to reflect on. You may also choose to do different ways with different students. Some students may need the structure this second method provides. For questions to use for this format, I recommend using questions from this place. Story-telling Writing Assignment The goal is for students to write a story with a clear plot (beginning, middle, and end) and descriptive details which develop the story further. I highly recommend using this link: Imaginative Narrative . Depending on your classroom, this can be used as a WebQuest or as a teacher resource from which you print and modify pre-made instructions, examples, story prompt ideas, rubrics, editing check-lists, and more. If you choose to use it as a WebQuest, I recommend you choose to consistently refer to it as an imaginative narrative to avoid student confusion or at least explain that it is a similar name to fantasy story-telling.
