Today you wrote a reading test. It was a bit of a challenge for some of you. Always use examples we have done in class as a guide. I was testing if you understood the characteristics of narratives and how you use them to SUMMARIZE the plot of a story. A few students need to finish. Remember a summary tells the most important things that happen in a story that relate to the character solving the problem. Some of you have got it. Others just need more practice. Remember your growth mindset!
