Jarrett J. Krosoczka's "Lunch Lady and the Author Visit Vendetta" -- Storyboarding & Story Structure Lesson Plan
In this Fearless Dragon Writers, LLC Lesson Plan (created by writer and writing teacher Andrea Felcone) you will find a FULLY SCRIPTED lesson plan to teach a 'Drawing Your Way Into Writing'/STORYBOARDING & STORY STRUCTURE writing lesson based on Jarrett J. Krosoczka’s “Lunch Lady and the Author Visit Vendetta”. A fun-filled lesson especially effective for reluctant writers! This lesson begins in one of the most unique ways I have ever created!
It may not always seem like it, but with WRITING, there's always a WAY IN. Often it is through DRAWING that children find a way into WRITING. In this lesson, students will be inspired to write a story--either a traditional story--OR a STORYBOARD story using the Comic Strip Storyboard Template provided. STORYBOARDING is the way Jarrett J. Krosoczka starts his process for creating his very popular graphic novels. It's a great technique for reluctant writers to imitate. STORYBOARDING is also ideal for teaching STORY STRUCTURE: strong BEGINNINGS; interesting 'MIDDLES' (conflict!); and wonderful ENDINGS -- that either resolve the conflict or leave a cliffhanger for the reader! (In my experience, kids love cliffhangers!)
This lesson plan contains—21 pages of tested content—including Teaching Tips, Techniques, and a Fearless Dragon Writers' Writing Worksheet (filled with humorous and thoughtful prompts) to inspire writers—even reluctant writers! Writing Concepts covered: 'Drawing Your Way Into Writing'/STORYBOARDING & STORY STRUCTURE in writing.
Bonus content: Ideas for creating additional STORYBOARD Writing Lessons; as well as craft ideas (tied to the Lunch Lady series) to inspire future writing lessons. (This lesson was designed for 8 - 12-year-olds. There is content here to teach for 90 minutes. You can edit to fit your class length as needed.)
