Worksheets: Students will enjoy completing a scaffolded workbook that teaches important story writing skills, like identifying topic, purpose, form, audience, and elements of stories. Students will complete a structured culminating task called “Writing a Tall Tale” which guides them through writing a Tall Tale (A tall tale is a story with unbelievable elements).
