Creative Writing Assignment

Creative Writing Assignment  

Grade 7 

Social Studies

Mrs. Orendorff

Picture yourself as a First Nations or European settler from the 1600s.  You are going to write a story about a day in the life of your character.  The story needs to be at least one page long.  You need to describe the scene by talking about the settlement or tribe, the setting, describe the clothes, and describe the relationship between the people in your story. You will also need to describe the tools they would use on a daily bases (an example of tools would be a stone mortar and pestle or fishing gear).    

Use chapter 2 of your textbook to help you come up with ideas.  There are examples you can use for inspiration on what scenes to imagine and what tools might have been used.

For those that do not complete the assignment in class it is homework :) 

I would like the assignment typed doubled spaced.  If you do not have a computer single spaced in your work book is fine. If you have any questions please leave a comment below or find me at school.
