-Today's work: assignment for Wednesday. Do not send them before! There will be new instructions on how to send your work.
-Today we are going to revise how to write a narrative. But it needs to be a very special, intimate narrative.
Follow the steps:
1. Read the narrative on page 70 (SB) and answer the questions in exercise 2.
2. Read the Time Expressions and Connectors of Sequence box (p 70) Then, do exercises 3 and 4.
3. How to begin our narrative: Hook starters
-When you start a narrative, you should do it with a sentence that "hooks" the reader. Read the document from Padlet Ways to "hook" your reader. In what different ways can you start a narrative to hook your reader? (Copy in your notebook)
-Go to page 65. How does the writer begin the story? Do you think that beginning "hooks" the reader?
-Task: Write a narrative following the guide on p. 70 (Opening, Body and Closing). Choose one of the following "hook" sentences to begin your writing.
(*In the Padlet you can read an example of a narrative that a student wrote last year)
These are the "hook" sentences you can choose from:
-“One pound and thirty-two pence. Three times I counted it.”
-When ………… moved away, I felt
that my world had come to an end.”
-“How long have you kept a secret?”
-“The moment I saw her/him, I knew I
would...”
-“We
all came to a new country carrying no more than hope and memories of
the past.”
-“Once
upon a time, there was a woman who discovered she had turned into the
wrong person.”
-“He
(She)
was born with a gift of laughter and a sense that the world was mad.
The
day I met him (her), ….”
-“This
was the first time I had been given a gift.”
-“Call
me Ishmael,...”
-“¡This
must be a dream! ¡Not a dream, a nightmare!”
-"There
was only one thing she was sure about. This was not the life she
wanted to live for the rest of her life.”
