What are two things to do with the structure of a personal narrative that you will remember to include in your Big Write on Friday?
Writing
Learning Intention: We are learning to dramatize events in a personal narrative Success Criteria: - I can select an event
from my life - I can include words
and phrases to create drama

You will need:
- Your personal timeline (created in week 2)

In a personal narrative we often want to create drama or suspense to engage
our reader. We do not want it to seem just like a list of events. Compare the 2
examples below…
Recounted list of events Personal narrative
On September 1st 1996 it was my
5th Birthday. My party was at
McDonalds in a train. 10 of my
friends came. We ate happy
meals. I had a cheeseburger and
chips. Then we played on the
playground. We played hide and
seek. After that we had icecream
cake and I opened my presents.
The best was a new barbie. At
the end everyone went home
and I played with my new toys.
The day I was waiting for had
finally arrived. My 5th birthday
party! I couldn’t contain my
excitement as I got dressed for
what was sure to be the best day
of the year.
Driving up to see those golden
arches gave me goosebumps and
I could not believe my eyes when
I saw a real train carriage near
the playground. Was this really
where my party was going to be?
One by one my friends started to
arrive wishing me “Happy
Birthday” and showering me with
gifts. I rattled the presents trying
to guess what was inside while I

waited for my lunch, giggling and
chatting with my friends as our
stomachs grumbled in
anticipation.
My mouth watered as a juicy
cheeseburger and crunchy fries
arrived at my table and I quickly
devoured them before it was
time to play on the playground.
Samantha suggested we play
hide and seek and started to
count 1, 2, 3…18, 19, 20, while
we all ran to hiding spots in the
equipment (I hid in the tunnel).
The game was so much fun!
As the party was coming to an
end it was time for my guests to
sing to me and as I blew out my
candles I wished for the day to
never end.
