Hello Agents,

For today’s writing assignment, we are going to learn about what a personal narrative is, how to identify one, and practice coming up with examples.

1. Read the following story and ask yourself these questions:
   1. Who is the story about? (Check the pronouns. Do you see he/she/they or I/we?)
   2. Is this story fiction or non-fiction?
2. Read the following task cards and determine if they are personal narratives or not.
   1. Read through as many as you need to be comfortable with identifying personal narratives.
   2. Ask someone to help make sure you correctly identified true stories about yourself as personal narratives.
3. Fill out the first page of the student Personal Narrative Packet, which we will be using throughout this unit.
   1. Look at this anchor chart for an example of how to fill it out.
