Free Bootcamp Course: Foundations of Writing
In this module, students will explore the key elements of a personal narrative by analyzing a mentor text. They will then brainstorm ideas for their own personal narrative, focusing on a memorable experience. Throughout the unit, mini-lessons will cover essential writing skills such as planning with sketch notes, organizing a story, incorporating descriptive details, and more. Students will progress through each step of the writing process—brainstorming, drafting, revising, and publishing—with the mentor text as their guide.
