Narrative Performance Task:
PART 1
Your school is creating a collection of short stories about favorite traveling destinations. Since you have studied the Norwegian culture recently, you decide to write about Norway. To start, you completed some research about the territory. During your research, you have found three articles about Norway.
After you review these sources, you will answer some questions about them. Briefly scan the sources and the three questions that follow. Then go back and read the sources carefully so you will have the information you will need to answer the questions and complete your research. Use scratch paper to take notes. Your answers to these questions will be scored. Also, your answers will help you think about the information you have read and viewed, which should help you write your story.
In Part 2, you will write a story on a topic related to the sources.
PART 2
In your story, a family has won an all-expenses paid vacation to Puerto Rico. Write a story about one day of their vacation. When writing your story, find ways to use information and details from the sources to improve your story. Make sure you develop your character(s), the setting, and the plot, using details, dialogue, and description where appropriate
