This lesson you will plan the interactive presentation you will develop over the next couple of weeks.

You will also have a discussion about Flow charts and use them to plan your story.

An example story game made by a Year 4, based off their descriptive writing project.



You need to:

  • Storyboard your story timeline
    • Including the story branches.
  • Find and save any pictures or clip-art you will need.

For example:

Slide 1: Title

  • Title: "Exploring a Mysterious Island"
  • Introduction to the topic and set the stage for an adventure.

Slide 2: Main Character

  • Introduce the main character of the story (e.g., a young explorer named Alex).
  • Briefly describe Alex's background and interests in adventure.

Slide 3: Choose Your Path

  • Present the first narrative fork with two options:
    1. Option A: Alex decides to explore the dense forest.
    2. Option B: Alex chooses to investigate the hidden cave.

Slide 4: Exploring the Forest

  • If Option A was chosen, describe Alex's journey into the forest.
  • Mention any interesting discoveries or encounters along the way.

Slide 5: Cave Adventure

  • If Option B was chosen, describe Alex's exploration of the hidden cave.
  • Include details about what Alex finds inside the cave.

Slide 6: Uncover a Mystery

  • Regardless of the choice made earlier, both paths converge here.
  • Describe a mysterious object or clue that Alex finds (e.g., an ancient map).

Slide 7: Choose Your Path Again

  • Present the second narrative fork based on the discovery in Slide 6:
    1. Option A: Alex follows the map to a hidden treasure.
    2. Option B: Alex decides to investigate a strange noise coming from deeper in the island.

Slide 8: Treasure Hunt

  • If Option A was chosen, describe Alex's treasure hunt adventure.
  • Include obstacles and challenges Alex faces in finding the treasure.

Slide 9: The Island's Secret

  • If Option B was chosen, describe what Alex discovers while investigating the strange noise.
  • Reveal the island's secret, which could be related to wildlife or an ancient civilization.

Slide 10: Conclusion

  • Conclude the presentation by summarizing the adventure and the outcomes of the choices.
  • Encourage students to think about the importance of decision-making and exploration.
