Week 6: Using the Story Sequence Chart - Options

I forgot to mention that there are some options for your child as they rewrite their story...

Remember this is fiction!
Here are some options:
a. Straight summary: no changes, just key elements.  Be honest to the original.
b. Elaboration: Add or change the details. fables/myths/fairy tales okay to change
c. Variation: Change characters/setting - new basic problem

Don't be afraid of the Story Sequence Chart - Trust the system!  Keep it simple!

Happy Writing!
Mrs. Gaines
