This week we're learning about different narrative forms. During computer lab time today, click on the link below to write your own fractured fairy tale.
Remember: a noun is a person, place, thing, idea, event, or feeling (friend, park, dog)
A verb is usually an action word. (climb, discover, eat)
An adjective describes a noun (clever, round, bright)
An adverb most often describes a verb (merrily, quickly, cleverly)
