As an pre-writing exercise for a narrative essay they'll be writing, I asked my College Writing I students to describe a significant experience they'd had in the last year or two, one that they'd learned from or been changed by. Here are their messages. Each could be the foundation of a great narrative essay (in my humble opinion).
Bigger Classroom #13 - Hank's Message
Hank reflects on his daughter's birth
Bigger Classroom #14 - Dawn's Message
Dawn reflects on the big four-oh
Bigger Classroom #15 - Nate's Message
Nate reflects on jury duty and the new perspective it gave him on how we interpret news reports about alleged crime.
Bigger Classroom #16 - Linda's Message
Linda talks about having a loved one serve in Iraq
Bigger Classroom #17 - Cliff's Message
Cliff talks about adapting to a change in corporate culture at C&S
