Story Bird

Hello students!

In Language this week, we learned about narrative stories. For your Language activity (due in two weeks), you are required to log in to Story bird and build a narrative where you can create a story of your choosing. Make sure you narrative has all the required aspects such as characters, setting, an introduction, rising action, climax, falling action and an ending. Be sure to complete a rough copy within class time before posting your information online as you create your slides and continually save your work.  




Parents, this activity relates to the Language Arts curriculum. It allows students to explore a different way of communicating what they learned through an interactive activity.  If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to send me an email.
