Historical Fiction 3321

Historical Fiction is a story that is written in an accurate portrayal of the past which may include people of that time, but the story is fictional.

Historical Fiction can be used in the classroom in a number of ways. It is a great way to introduce social studies or history in a unique and exciting way. Even though the actual story may not be true it is a good way to learn about how people of the time coped with situations like, Columbus, World War II, and other major historical events. You could have your students learn about a certain time in history and write their own Historical Fiction story over that time period.
