  1. you are final eighth grade project used to write for
  2. me a photo narrative.
  3. Ransom Riggs.
  4. When he wrote this series of books, he based the
  5. stories off of these old pictures that he found.
  6. So your assignment is to write me a story based
  7. off of a picture.
  8. So I have given you below about 15 pictures that
  9. you can choose from.
  10. You don't have to use one of those pictures, but
  11. they're there as an idea for you.
  12. So feel free to use one of those.
  13. And if you do, just let me know which one
  14. you've chosen.
  15. You can also find a picture of your own.
  16. I would prefer that it be some kind of interesting
  17. vintage photo to kind of go off of what what
  18. Ransom Riggs did.
  19. So I want you to write me a narrative.
  20. And a narrative is essentially just a story.
  21. What really is just a story, So I want you
  22. to write me a story based off of the photo
  23. that you find.
  24. So this story needs to have a beginning, a middle
  25. and an end.
  26. You need to set up the exposition for me, said
  27. of the characters set up setting tell me when and
  28. where it takes place needs to be evident.
  29. You need to have some rising action.
  30. There needs to be that climax that last moment at
  31. the top before there is a resolution, which also means
  32. that there needs to be some sort of problem that's
  33. being solved, something that's going on in this story.
  34. And then you need tohave that resolution, that conclusion at
  35. the ending that Daniel Malak there is a graphic organizer
  36. that you can download that's here on blackboard.
  37. You'll see it on the instructions, and you can use
  38. that to help plan out your story.
  39. If you don't have to use it.
  40. But you can, it might help on.
  41. And there's also if you look at the photo narrative
  42. assignment, there is a rubric that will show you how
  43. I'm went to grade this narrative so you can make
  44. sure you have everything you need to make sure that
  45. you are using dialogue between your characters.
  46. They're having conversations, and your punctuating them correctly need to
  47. use some figurative language and imagery.
  48. Help me to be able to see your story.
  49. We help me to be able to see what's going
  50. on. Besides just the picture that you have used, you
  51. have any questions?
  52. Please let me know.
  53. I'm not giving you a minimum or a maximum length.
  54. It just needs to be a complete story.
  55. So if you want to write 20 pages, then by
  56. all means go ahead.
  57. But if your story ends up being 1 to 2
  58. pages, then that's probably OK to.
  59. If you're not sure if it's long enough, then send
  60. it to me before you turned it in and we'll
  61. see and I will give you some feedback.
  62. I can't wait to see your imaginations and what you
  63. come up with.
