Consider incorporating real historical events and weaving fictional elements around them to create a gripping narrative. 4. Research: Historical accuracy is vital. Use a section of your graphic organizer to note down sources, references, and interesting facts pertaining to your chosen era. This information will lend credibility to your story and immerse readers in an authentic historical experience.
