The document provides four tips for teaching 9th grade students narrative text writing: 1) Have students work in groups to write short stories but edit individually, 2) Allow students to choose working individually or with friends on children's bedtime stories, ensuring outlines and drafts are checked, 3) Provide pictures and starting sentences to guide individual story writing, 4) Organize group work where each adds a sentence to a collective story that is passed between groups.

- 1. SEVERAL TIPS ON HOW TO TEACH NARRATIVE TEXT WRITING (9 GRADERS) BY: WIWIN MUHAMMAD
- 2. 1. WRITING SHORT STORIES • Ask them to work in groups (3 or 4), to help those who are not quite confident with their writing, but the short story has to be written individually. Check the outline of the story, don't forget to take a look at their progress and make neccessary correction. Bind the whole stories and you get a short story compilation from each class.
- 3. 2. WRITING CHILDREN/BEDTIME STORIES • Students can choose whether they want to work individually or in groups. Some students like having friends to work with, while others prefer working on their own. Always check for the outline and draft before printing and binding. Don't forget to ask them to add some pictures for illustration.
- 4. 3. WRITING GUIDED STORIES • Give the students a piece of paper with some pictures for illustration in it. Write "Once upon a time/Long long time go/Once........" in the first paragraph, "One day, ........" in the second paragraph, and "Finally/In the end?So, ........" in the last one. Students look for the inspiration from the pictures you provide.
- 5. 4. WRITING CHAINED STORIES • Students work in groups. • Start a story on a piece of paper with one sentence for the orientation (e.g Once upon time, there was a little frog who lived in a small pond near the forest.) • The first group add a sentence, then pass the paper to the next group, and so forth until the story finishes.
