Personal Narratives Writing Unit, Yr F

About this teaching resource

Dive into the world of personal narrative with our 6-page PDF resource Personal Narratives Writing Unit, Yr F, for teachers.

Employing the READING LIKE A WRITER approach, students delve into read-alouds, shared reading, and mentor texts to hone their narrative skills. Utilise a variety of mentor texts to help students grasp the genre and compare different versions.

Try our 'good writer' mini lessons:  For example, good writers draw from personal experiences to craft engaging stories, focusing on 'small moments' and using simple language to convey the passage of time. They express thoughts and feelings, constructing stories with compelling beginnings and endings, enriched by descriptive details. Writing in the first person lends strength to their voice, and they learn from mentor texts to make craft decisions, supported by teachers.

Empower students to unleash their creativity and storytelling prowess while honing their writing skills.
