Whether it serves as a swift substitute lesson plan (just print and leave on your desk!) or as a foundation for a week-long writing project, your download comes with: A narrative mapping template, assisting students in choosing their horror context, protagonist, character evolution, antagonist, and conflict (with minimal writing needed!) A research chart to aid students in fleshing out the specifics of their narrative A narrative outlining activity, enabling students to use their map's visual cues to initiate drafting their narrative A horror narrative writing task outline, inclusive of synopses of renowned horror tales, a calendar for due dates, general tips for narrative writing, a peer editing checklist for horror writing, and a grading rubric based on FOUR Common Core standards A hyperlink to an editable rubric that offers scope for grading adjustments and smooth integration into Google Classroom and various other Learning Management Systems (LMS's) The complete 4-page lesson is available in both vibrant color and monochrome versions. Although this resource can be fitted for any secondary Language Arts classroom, it has been carefully designed to work best in grades 7, 8, 9, and 10.
