Writing the Children Story

Get My Bike

    Jake, his brother and his father have been planning this biking trip for over a week now. Just the day before they were going, they decide to bring their friend.Jake, his brother and his friend always go biking together but this biking trip would be different because they are loading their bikes on to a trailer and going for a big drive.
Once they get to the perfect spot to unload their bike, it only takes seconds for Jake to start his bike up and go. Once they all get their bikes ready, Jake, his brother and his friend start driving all around. They are having a blast, climbing hills, exploring new trails and having the time of their lives.

They were all having so much fun but unfortunately there fun had to come to an end. Jake’s brother already had his bike loaded on the trailer but Jake and his friend decide to go for one more little drive around the pit. Finding a small water hole, bob was deciding if he should try it or not.

After thinking long and hard about it, he held down the gas and went for it. Only making it a couple feet in the water, he got stuck. The water was only around one foot deep but Jake thought is was way deeper and thought he was going to drowned his bike.

At the top of his lungs almost in tears he yells repeatedly “ GET MY BIKE.” Jake's friend dying in laughter because of the depth of the water, goes and helps him get his bike out of the muddy water.

After they get the bike out, they both had a great laugh about it for a while. The lesson in this would be that if something bad goes wrong, don't panic because the problem might not even be as bad as it seems.

Tips on Writing Stories for Children


http://m.wikihow.com/Write-a-Children's-Story

  1. Some information I found particularly helpful is, if you are having trouble thinking of an idea, ask a child. They are the ones reading it so see what they like. Another idea is make sure you state what age the book is recommended for.
  2. The information I found similar is that it looks like the author took lots of these points into consideration.
  3. The information I found helpful in "Writing Good Dialogue" is it gives you lots of tips on how to make your story better and how to correctly put dialog into your story.
  4.  What I think should be a part of the grading rubric for this assignment is the dialog. I think that because in a lot of children books that is a big part in the story.

Analyzing Children Stories

Invisible Alligators Review

  1.  The main character in Invisible Alligators is Sari. Sari is not human, she is a young monkey.
  2.  Yes there is some dialogue when Sari is talking out loud or to a alligator. Yes it helps describe the problems, feelings, situations because she says how she feels out loud.
  3. The conflict is that Sari feels invisible and alone in this book. Yes i think children can relate to this when they are alone and then they find other people that feel like them and become friends with them.
  4. The conflict is resolved by other people make friends with someone that is alone. The message or lesson is that if there is someone being ignored or bullied, talk to them and dont leave them out.
  5. All three stories are similar because they are all applying a good message in a way easy for a young person to comprehend.
  6. Things in these stories that would be appealing to younger children would be the characters in the books and also the humor in these books.

1. The first step is pretty simple, you must put your first name, then last.

2. Next, you create your own gmail. It can be anything you want and must have “@gmail.com” at the end. There is a chance that the username you choose is taken, if so, try something similar or just ass numbers on the end.

3. Now you have to create your password. Your password is for only you to know so make it something good and not easy to guess. You also have to confirm your password and that just means retype your password in the open slot.

5. Another simple step, your gender. Male or female and there is also an option to put “other”.

How To Article Review

The how to article that I am reviewing is called "How to Buy a Donkey". I chose this because buying donkeys is not something that people often do and its probably not easy to do.  You cant just go and search to buy a donkey, you have to have a trusted site.

This article would be very helpful to someone looking to buy a donkey. I feel this is a good and trusted site because the author went in great depth and included lots of details on it.

  • There are no more than three grammatical or spelling errors in the article. 5/5
  • The article has a catchy headline that makes you want to read it. 3/5
  • The article has a purpose, explaining benefits to the reader. 4/5
  • The steps in the article are clear and easy to understand. 5/5
Overall 17/20
