Student Instructions

Now that you have read the first chapter of your book, it is time to "set the scene." In other words, describe the exposition of the story. You'll want to include the characters you've met - and something about them, the setting, and what the problem seems to be. Add any other details you think are important, and make sure to plant some interesting words in your "word garden!"
