This lesson aligns with the Australian Curriculum for English, focusing on creating coherent narratives that include settings, characters, and plot development.
| Step Number | Step Title | Length (minutes) | Details |

| 1 | Introduction to Narrative | 5 | Briefly explain what a narrative is and discuss its elements (characters, setting, plot). Use a popular story as an example. |
| 2 | Elements Discussion | 10 | Divide students into small groups to discuss the key elements of a narrative. Each group will share their findings with the class. |
| 3 | Outline Activity | 5 | Students will create an outline for their own narrative using a provided template. Emphasize beginning, middle, and end. |
| 4 | Writing Time | 8 | Students will spend time writing the first draft of their narrative based on their outline. Encourage them to focus on creativity and detail. |
| 5 | Peer Review & Wrap-Up | 2 | Students will swap drafts with a partner for peer feedback. Conclude by summarizing the key points learned and discussing the importance of narratives. |
Students are to complete their narratives at home. They should be submitted via email or the school's online platform by the next lesson. Feedback will be provided individually without student presentations.
