Now close your eyes and think of a true experience that has happened to you. Tell yourself in your
private voice the elements...characters, setting, events and personal reaction. Option: you may choose

Bridge to Independent Practice:
Writers, now take your own copy of the personal narrative elements chart and fill it in with the
experience you just thought of. This is something that you can use today in your writing and each time
you plan a new personal narrative. From now on, have personal narrative elements charts available for
student use. After you have filled in the chart, you may use it to begin a new piece or put it in your
folder to use at a later time.
