Narrative Essay

 

Using your brainstorm from class, plot chart, and the author’s craft activities, write a narrative essay that explains an event in your own life that has a larger connection to our world (I came from Vietnam, so you must write the essay connect with Asian culture. It must be my own life I know, but just imagine you are me, so on… You can check on internet but don’t use any work cites). This could be a connection to a political issue, a social issue, or any issue that is shared with parts of the world around you. The narrative should do the following:

 

• Sets up the plot with important exposition/background
• Utilizes the progression of plot to reach a meaningful/climax
• Concludes the plot with a larger main idea/thesis
• Uses narrative techniques to engage the reader and highlights the thesis
