Narrative Rough Draft9
Today you will use the cluster you drew in Lesson 8 to write a personal narrative . Be sure you are accurate with the facts . Remember, a personal narrative is a true story, so no exaggeration is allowed .
Don’t be too concerned with punctuation and spelling in your rough draft—just write! Try to write the way you would tell the story to your best friend or your cousin . You will revise your work in Lesson 11 .
Here is David’s rough draft for his personal narrative “Visiting Washington, D .C .” Notice how he used notes from more than one branch of his cluster in the same paragraph .
Narrative Rough Draft
Visiting Washington D.C. This summer my family went to Washington D.C. I had never been to D.C. before, so I saw
a lot of new things. We used the subway to travel from place in the city. Daddy had wanted to
get to the subway station before everyone else did, but everyone else must have had the same
idea. So many people!
We went on the subway after we got our tickets. It was loud in there because of all the
talking. We heard the subway train before we saw it. When the doors opened, we all followed
Daddy into the one subway car. I didn’t think we would all fit, but we did.
After we got off the subway, we went to the zoo. They had a lot of big cats there. I wanted
to hear a lion roar, but they were so lazy that they just lay in the sun. I did hear the
monkeys chatter! We laughed at two monkeys chasing each other up and down their ropes.
We also saw elephants, many strange birds, and snakes.
After the zoo we went to the Lincoln Memorial and the Washington Monument. We also
saw the White House. I thought we might get to see the President, but Daddy said he thought

the President was busy somewhere else.
We stopped for lunch at a hot dog stand. I ordered what the hot dog man called “the works.”
It was really good, but it was terribly messy. Some sauce got on my shirt and Mom tried to
clean it off but it left an ugly smear on my shirt. Daddy bought each of us cotton candy as
a special treat. Mom thought we would get sick from all the sugar, but we didn’t.
Our next stop was the Smithsonian museum. I think it had more animals the zoo! We walked
and walked but still had more to see when Daddy said it was time to go. Before heading back
to the subway, we stopped at a Chinese restaurant. I had never eaten chinese food before, and
none of the names sounded like food we eat. I let Mom order my meal. Although it had a
funny name, it was just chicken with a special sauce. I liked it.
I don’t remember the subway ride back to our vehicle because I fell asleep. Visiting D.C. was
so much fun, but it was a long day of walking. Maybe we’ll go again sometime and get to see
the President and hear a lion roar.
