Lazy Lions, Lucky Lambs

ACTIVITIES:

1. When Richard finally began to write his story, it wasn't as hard as he thought. What are some things that help you to get started writing a story? Write them down as a list or paragraph.

2. Richard finally decided to use Mr. Mancina, the principal, as the subject for his Real-Person story. Who would you choose to write about if you had this assignment? Why would you choose this person? Write this in a paragraph.

3. Like Richard, good writers notice details. Think about a person or place you know. List all the details about this person or place. Write a story using these details.

4. Make a newspaper or magaine ad for this book. Include a picture and tell why people should read the story.
