What makes a good narrative?

We have been learning about writing a narrative. A good narrative includes who, what, when, where and why. It also includes detail, a problem and a solution. It also needs an interesting start and end and language features like similes.

One of these things that I do well is having an interesting start and the W's.

One of these things that I need to get better at is putting in some language features and 1 problem and solution.

speeches

This term room 15 are doing speeches. This is what I think about speeches .
I think that speeches are hard and when I do a speech I get nervous. I feel that way because i am a very shy person and im not use to doing speeches.

I think i need to get better at eye contact and speaking more clearly. I also think I need to get better at being confident while i am talking.
