Personal Narrative



- what is your personal narrative about?
- why did you choose this topic?
- what is ONE thing you did really well in this piece of writing?
- what are your strengths as a writer?
- what are some areas you would like to improve upon? How?


My personal narrative is about setting up my trampoline with my Dad.
I chose this topic because I thought it was a really fun moment in my life and I had a lot of fun setting the trampoline up with my Dad.
I think did really well on my punctuation. 
My strength as a writer is to not quit when I get sucked into my writing.
 I would like to improve on my writing by working on a LITTLE SEED writing instead of a GIANT WATERMELON story.

My Reading Goal

- what was your reading goal?
- how did it go?
- how do you know?
- were you successful? Why? Why not?
- what do you think you will work on as your next reading goal?


My reading goal is to use different comprehension strategies.
My reading goal worked out really well.
I know this because on my chart in my reading journal, it showed I did not do the same comprehension strategies very much. 
I was successful because I actually thought about what I was using when I read my book.
I think my next reading goal should be working on reading out loud.
