Students' opportunities to become a Pioneer and Native

Here is where you have the opportunity to become a Native American and a Pioneer. You are no longer a student at Eugene Elementary, you must become your character. This narrative piece should tie in aspects from every lesson so that it is as authentic as possible. Here are a few keys to writing a solid narrative:

• is told from a particular point of view
• makes and supports a point
• is filled with precise detail
• uses vivid verbs and modifiers
• uses conflict and sequence as does any story
• may use dialogue

Please think long and hard about how you want to portray your characters, and remember to respect both the Natives and Pioneers tradition and heritage.
