Assignment for May 4

Create a doc in your English folder called First Initial Last Name Prompt

(example: B Desai Prompt)

Choose a writing prompt from the visual prompts on the link 

below and write an essay or story (depends on the prompt you 

choose) from the prompt. After choosing a prompt, if you’re 

unsure which to write, an essay or story, email me the prompt 

you chose and ask for advice. (Essentially, write a story for a 

fictional prompt, and an essay for an argument or non-fiction 

prompt.)If you don’t know which prompt to choose, I can assign 

you one, just ask. :)

Due date: Monday, May 11, before 2 p.m.
