Narrative Prompts
1. Eleanor Roosevelt once said, "You must do the thing you think you cannot do." Write a narrative about a time when you did something you thought you could not do. Be sure to include specific details so that a reader can follow your story.
2. Anne Frank said, "Whoever is happy will make others happy too." Use this quote to write about a particularly happy memory.
3. Booker T. Washington wrote, "Success isn't measured by the position you reach in life. It's measured by the obstacles you overcome." At some time or other, we all face obstacles. Think of a time that you faced an obstacle and overcame it. Explain what happened and what you did to overcome the obstacle. Make sure to use the quote in your response.
