 * Students will learn how to construct a literary voice through working with tone, imagery, diction, and syntax. They will also learn how to use transitions and properly organize a story for maximum effect. Students will also be introduced to different types of narrative. For example, students will look at short stories, news and magazine articles, and pieces from various genres to see how the narrative can be used. Through working with terminology, story organizing processes, learning about different types of narratives, and constructing narratives themselves, students will have a thorough working (can apply it in real-life situations) knowledge of narrative writing. The summative assessment will be a newspaper with articles written in narrative form.
