Check understanding
- Open a narrative by establishing setting, point of view, and a hook that engages the reader
- Use dialogue, pacing, and descriptive detail to develop characters and advance the plot
- Craft a conclusion that reflects on the narrated events rather than simply ending the action
“When your child writes a story, do they use techniques like describing feelings, building suspense, or showing dialogue to make it interesting to read?”
