    1. Grading Rubric:
      4 Pts Story has very few spelling and/or grammatical errors. Proofread!
      3 Pts Story uses 3 of the 6 sound effects from this list: [cat meow], [rim shot], [applause], [crowd laugh], [crash], & [small dog bark].
      3 Pts Story and sound effects fit well together.
    2. Listen to the 6 sounds in this Google Drive folder.
    3. Sound effects can be used to tell a story. Which of these recordings sound like they could be part of a great adventure?
    4. Stories often have more than one sound to help build the scene. Which of these sounds could be used together?
    5. Today, I would like you to write a short story that could use three of these six sounds.
      1. You can write on paper if you want, but Mr. Smith would prefer that you use Canvas.
      2. It can be a 3 sentence story again if you want, but it doesn't have to be that exact number.
      3. During our next class, we'll use an audio editor to combine the sound effects with our stories to make them more awesome!
      4. When you are writing your story, include the sound effect between brackets [like this].
          1. Example:
            1. I stood in front of the audience and told them the best joke ever. [crowd laugh]
            2. Everybody loved it! [applause]
            3. I made so much money telling jokes that I bought my cat the fancy cat food. [cat meow]
