In this unit, you will be writing a personal narrative about a significant, memorable moment in your life. You will want to SHOW us this event, using sensory detail, not just write down a list of events. This means you need to pick a brief moment. For example, in a narrative, you would not write a list of all the steps you took to try out for the varsity team, but you could write a specific championship game.

Your thesis needs to follow this format: I knew I ____________ when __________

Use this prompt to narrow down your topic.

You might think of the time you got your first job, a challenging experience with a friend or family member, when you took on more responsibility at home, when you became a mother, or the time you did or didn't graduate high school. Remember your thesis should be only one sentence that describes a brief moment in time, not several years, months, or weeks. Ideally, you will want to write about an event that occurred in less than one hour.

Examples:

I knew I was no longer a child when my friend broke my trust.

I knew I would never let fear control me again when I stood up to the bully.

I knew I had mastered the art of self control when I walked away from a fight with my brother.

I knew I was no longer a child when I drove alone the first time.

I knew I would never again ignore my mom’s advice when I saw the flashing lights in my rear view mirror.

I knew I had finally forgiven my sister when I rushed to her side in the hospital.

I knew I was going to have to change my habits when I didn't graduate with my classmates.

Now, write your thesis. Remember your thesis should include the event you'll be describing, and the event should only be a brief moment in time. A thesis is only one sentence in length. That's right, for this assignment you will only be submitting your thesis, which is one sentence.
