This is one of the 'recipes' from a great book I've been using: RTI in the Classroom: Guidelines and Recipes for Success . The book was written by Rachel Brown-Chidsey, Louise Bronaugh, and Kelly McGraw. I love books like this because they're practical and offer ideas that can be implemented immediately.
The directions to the activity:
1. Model how to use the Personal Narrative Think Sheet as a whole group.
2. Explicitly teach how to complete each section of the think sheet.
3. Allow students time to work alone or with a partner in planning a story.
4. Hold brief check-in meetings to see how students have used the think sheet.
5. Monitor progress with story starter probes and a writing rubric.

Personal Narrative Think Sheet
Topic:
1. Search all memories:
The time when…
The time when…
The time when…
2. Chose one story to tell.
3. Play it in your mind (like a video).
4. Where did it happen? 8. What happened?
5. Who was there? 9. What were my feelings?
6. What did I see? 10. How did it end?
7. What did I hear? 11. Why do I remember this? Why is it important?
