Writing Time!!!

Dear third graders,

Hello!!!

I love reading  and writing short stories. What about you?

When you write, you need to think about certain things like the author's purposes and the elements of the stories. If you do so before writing, your stories will rock!!!

Author's Purposes

PERSUADE 

INFORM

ENTERTAIN

Remember:

Elements of the Story

Remember: You need to consider these elements before writing a short story, so it turns out to be interesting to the readers.

 Plot , Character , Conflict, Theme, Setting!
Yes! These are the five things!
