Teaching kids story mapping


This week, we're working on story maps. It's like a mind map for writers that I read about online. You map out your storyline as you make it up. I tried it with Angelica, as it's been a while since we did writing activities.

As she tells the story of the witch and the princess, I got her to place the characters on paper, along with their actions in the story.

Christmas Carols by Angelica Ling

“There was a witch and a princess. The witch decided to steal the princess' singing voice, and gave her a potion that tastes like barley. When the princess drank it, the witch took her voice. So, the princess made a potion that tastes like strawberry. But it's not to take her voice back from the witch. It's just so that she has a new voice. Now, she can sing Christmas carols! The end.”

Below is her illustration of the story.
