A simple cut ‘n’ paste Earth Day activity that allows a student to plan a narrative from the point of view of a raindrop, ray of light, seed or grain of sand. Students plan their story across five paragraphs with attention to plot and devices through the ‘pick and mix’ prompts, whilst still using their own ideas.
The activity worksheets feature:
Writing titles and prompts
Five-paragraph planning grid
Structural features for planning the plot and narrative style
Writing device labels for adding spice
Punctuation checklist for drafting
This resource comes in US letter and UK A4 size, and in color and BW versions.
