You Are There!




Hello Explorers:

Pretend that you are about to become one of the original inhabitants of our region.

Describe your journey.

Give details of your thoughts and feelings and interactions with other people.

Be sure to include details from your research.

USE YOUR OWN WORDS!

Break your story up into four paragraphs:

1) The first paragraph can be introducing the character and why they’re leaving on their journey.

2) The second paragraph can be about the actual journey, things they run into, things that occur.

3) The third paragraph can be once they arrive at their destination, what they find and plan to do while they’re there.

4) The fourth paragraph can be the conclusion, how you feel about being in your new home.

You will write your rough draft in your social studies notebook and publish your final draft in a WORD document. You need to fill at least two pages in your notebook, but feel free to write more.
