They have been researching their own cultures to determine which aspect of their culture they can explore\/reveal through a new myth. They used their research to begin drafting their stories. Throughout the process they attended mini-lessons aimed at helping the hone their writing skills, such as developing their story according to the Freytag pyramid, how to incorporate dialogue, how to visualise the key parts of the story through a storyboard, and how to write a preface for their own story to engage their readers on a personal level. The students are fully engaged in the process and have gone through 2 drafting phases. Currently, they are working on the 3rd draft, which is to create a storyboard of key moments in their stories, as can be seen in the photos below from a student&#8217;s notebook:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/abisoman.com\/broadcaster\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/17\/2026\/10\/IMG_5216-scaled.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-333802 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/abisoman.com\/broadcaster\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/17\/2026\/10\/IMG_5216-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 225px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 225\/300;\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/abisoman.com\/broadcaster\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/17\/2026\/10\/IMG_5217-scaled.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-333803 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/abisoman.com\/broadcaster\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/17\/2026\/10\/IMG_5217-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 225px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 225\/300;\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/abisoman.com\/broadcaster\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/17\/2026\/10\/IMG_5218-scaled.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-333804 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/abisoman.com\/broadcaster\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/17\/2026\/10\/IMG_5218-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 225px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 225\/300;\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/abisoman.com\/broadcaster\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/17\/2026\/10\/IMG_5219-scaled.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-333805 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/abisoman.com\/broadcaster\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/17\/2026\/10\/IMG_5219-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 225px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 225\/300;\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our grade 7 students have completed their analysis of myths from other cultures and now use that knowledge and understanding to create their own myths.
