Question 2 True / False
Your made-up story has to be long and complicated to count as a real story.

Even a short story is a real story! If it has a character and something happens, you have made a story.
Question 3 Short Answer
Tell a short made-up story with a character and what happens to them. Make it your own!
Think about your answer, then reveal below.
Model answer: Example: A tiny mouse finds a giant piece of cheese. The mouse tries to carry it home. At the end, the mouse eats it with friends.
A good answer shows a beginning (character), middle (what happens), and end. The story can be as simple as you want!

ATrue, you have to write

You can tell stories out loud and a grown-up can write them down, or you can draw your stories as pictures!
Question 5 True / False

Answer: False
Made-up stories can be as wild and silly as you want! A flying cow, a talking carrot, or a backward story is perfectly fine!
