Setting of own story: (students are working on a short story in steps. This is step two. Step one was creation of your main character. I have marked these and put them in your portfolios).
· You are to think about where the story they will be writing could take place (house, mall, school, etc) in Alberta
· On an 11 x 17 sheet of paper, you will create a detailed map of the setting (if it takes place in a house, for example, include all rooms)
· You will then decide where the majority of the action will take place – and what kind of mood it will have (you already have a list of mood words – you need to write down the mood you want as well as how you will achieve this
· If you finish early you are to study their figurative Language sheet. Keep in mind that you have a unit exam coming up shortly and will need to know these terms in order to do well on it.
