EARLY FINISHERS - WHOSE LINE IS IT?
1. For those complete with their Jaguar Narrative: I will assign you to a breakout room. I will give you a link to the Whose Line is It? Writing Google document in the zoom chat. You will all go to this form and construct a narrative together.
2. But you have to follow the rules of the narrative game as given on the Whose Line is It? Writing document. Decide the order of who will write from first to last. Each time it is your turn, you will add one sentence to the story right after the person before you. No one may tell you what to write. But, others can offer synonym word choices or help with your grammar or sentence structure as needed. But they may only do this after you write your sentence. But the person cannot change anything else from what they wrote. 3. As others finish, I will send them to the breakout room. Their turn will be after the last person. So keep adding on people to the end to write. |
4. Please follow all grammar rules and sentence structure. Your narrative still needs to have all the elements of a story as a plot, dialogue, and characters.
5. Be as serious or silly as you want on your turn. But do not be inappropriate or violent in your stories. 6. I will be monitoring in the Google doc and on the second computer to ensure you remain present, safe, and on task. 7. Be respectful to one another. Do not criticize others for what they write. The group leader can come get me if some are writing offensive comments, are off task, or for any other behaviors that may need to be addressed. 8.Try to complete 30-50 sentences per story. You can do more than one. You can also try doing a poem after your narrative if time. |
