This independent or group activity works well with Personal Narrative Lessons. In narrative writing, is important to narrow in on a small moment and stretch out the details. A large event to a watermelon (like a weeklong trip to the beach) and smaller moments to the watermelon's seeds (like building a sandcastle with your sister). I think this is so helpful in making students understand the difference so they can hone in on those seed ideas to use in their writing.
3 ways to teach:
- Powerpoint to teach, model, practice
