•Story Blaster Example
It started on a sunny winter day at my house. I was for
once ecstatic about taking my math facts test at
school, because I had studied the night before. I knew
if I passed my test I would get to go to a movie that
weekend.
• As I got ready for school that morning, I kept repeating
my math facts to myself. My older brother started to
mock me which really made me mad. My mother
hurried me into our car which she had let idle to warm
up the engine. The car started out of the driveway
when it chugged and stopped. I was worried that I
would not get to school on time to take my test, and I
was on the verge of breaking into a cold sweat from
being so nervous.
•
•Story Blaster Example (cont)
My mother started the car up and drove me to school.
I was on time!!
• I took my math facts test and got all the problems
right. I guess my mother was right when she said I had
the potential to learn the math facts.
