I don’t understand this Writing question and need help to study.

Purpose

This activity introduces narrative structure and asks you to apply narrative structure analysis to the story you wrote for our class.

• sequence of events

Tasks

• Watch the video
• Read over the story you turned in.
• Analyze and identify the structure of your story.
