YOUR DONE!!!



River Story Epilogue and Author's Page --- These are the two least important pages... Don't spend more than 15 minutes on each
River Story – Epilogue

This is the conclusion to your River Story. It should wrap up the entire story of your river and show what the future looks like for your river. The epilogue can be written from either your own perspective or the perspective you have been using throughout the story.

It should include:
·       What is life on the river like TODAY?
·       A brief summary of each section (1-5 sentences total)
·       What the future ahead looks like for your river…
·       1 Image (or border if you want)

River Story – Author’s Page

This is the final page in your River Story. The goal of this page is introduce yourself to the reader, talk about who you are and share parts of your bamba, and share about what you learned during the process of writing your River Story

It should include the following:
1.     Introduction to who you are
a.      Name, age, school, and any other important details you want to share about yourself
2.     My Bamba
a.      Share two things that you do when not writing river stories that make up a part of what makes you special (your bamba) ... for exmpale I might share that when I am not writing my River Story I can be found eating elephant ears by the handful!
3.     The Writing Process
a.      Share what the research and writing process was like, what you learned about yourself
4.     Big Take Away….
a.      One final thought about your river and your hopes for its’ future
5.     Image
a.      At least 1 image
                                               i.     Add an image related to yourself
                                              ii.     Add anything else that relates to you, your river, or your bamba
