Writing Fix: Writing About Life's Lessons

Curated by ACT

After reading A Single Shard by Linda Sue Park students complete a writing assignments. The writer first completes a graphic organizer about a life-changing experience or an experience from which a lesson has been learned. The retelling of the experience is then tied to a proverb. During revisions, the writer works to reference and explain the meaning of the proverb through his/her personal experience. The final product of this assignment is a concise essay (a parable of sorts) that intertwines and supports the words of wisdom that follow us into old age.
