Welcome to day one, lesson one of Writing in the Rainforest!

Before you begin any project, writing or otherwise, it’s good to have a plan, and that’s what our focus is today: Plan Your Story.

Here’s what we will accomplish today:

Lesson: brainstorming, story mapping, focusing your story, elements of story

Goal: define the parameters of your story

Assignment: write first draft of your story

Handouts and worksheets are attached to this page so you can print and use them for this and all future stories you write.

This is how happy you’ll look writing your story!
