Jago Chapter 3

This chapter on narrative writing was very good for breaking down the pieces of the process and the benefits that can be seen. As Jago points out, bringing characters to life by constructing them beyond static characters is vital to teaching students how to best create a narrative when developing their stories and writing. Jago also points to setting and point of view that really stand out as key points in the construction. Overall, there are really fantastic points in this chapter for narrative writing apart from the informational and persuasive writing that was mentioned in the previous chapter. The examples of both the story as well as the college essay gave good diversity in the versatility of narrative writing.
