Grade Nine and Grade One students  at Sargent Park worked in pairs to learn about  the parts of a good story and then to write their own story.  The students were paired on the advice of their teachers and then filled out a survey on some of their hobbies and interests.  

Through a number of meetings. the Grade One and Grade Nine students  talked about character and setting and then read a book chosen by the Grade One students.

The Grade one students then wrote a simple story which included a problem and it's solution, and the Grade Nine students wrote a story which included some of the 'favourites' of their Grade one partner.

The final result of all these meetings was a story from each of the students and the creation of a puppet which was made in the form of the main character in the Grade One story.
