Description
Tall Tales Story Pattern. How to write tall tales! A simple story pattern that will help students write their own tall tale. Fill in the blanks to create a story sketch, then elaborate and expand on to create a personal tall tale. Includes a handout on "What is a Tall Tale?" to use as a reference or put in an interactive notebook, a graphic organizer to help create the main character, and writing paper for a final draft. Also includes a Tall Tale suggested reading list for students to take to the media center as a guide for books on tall tales, a writing checklist, and a scoring rubric assessment piece. Good introduction or follow-up for a tall tales unit or after reading a tall tale like Paul Bunyan or Pecos Bill. Helps students avoid writer's block by scaffolding and gives them the confidence to complete their own story with elaboration practice. Great for homework, homeschool, remote learning, and independent study. Supports Common Core State Standards
