Fictional Narrative, Purple Level (Grades 5 – 6)

The fictional narrative writing unit, recommended for grades 5 to 6, helps you teach kids how to write a fictional story.

Lessons include story elements, characters, setting, problem & solution, dialogue, beginnings, endings, word choice, paragraphs, dialogue, revision, and editing.

Fictional Narrative Mentor Texts

The two required mentor texts (children’s books that model how to write fiction) are:

The Proudest Blue by Ibtihaj Muhammad & S.K Ali

Lulu and the Brontosaurus by Judith Viorst

One is a short chapter book and one is a picture book.

Not only will these books model writing crafts and skills but you’ll enjoy them for your reading and read-aloud time as well.

If you want to also purchase the book through my site, you can add them to the cart when you checkout or add them by visiting this page.
