The stories inside me are worth sharing.
Start with instructions from your teacher. Or use your Stories Inside Me journal to begin with a memory, a question, an idea, or something you want to imagine.

Every story starts with your voice.
Your classroom link keeps this count separate and private.
Your voice matters
There is no one right way to tell a story. Begin with something you know, imagine, remember, or want to explore.
Keep it yours
Share only what feels right. Read your words, make corrections, and decide when your story is ready to share.
My story plan
Build your story
1. Take a snapshot
Set the scene before the story starts moving.
Build the still picture
Fill in the scene in order. Each answer helps your reader see the picture before it starts moving.
2. Get the story in motion
Imagine the snapshot rolling into a video. Tell what happens next in your own words.
