Wrap Up Writing Prompt
In "Mrs. Flowers" Maya Angelou tells the story of a woman who changed her life when she was young. Describe an adult/person older than you who has had a positive impact on your life. It doesn't need to be as life-changing as Angelou's, but you should be able to explain what this person does/did that had a positive impact on you, that you appreciated. Maybe include an anecdote (very short story to show something).
6 sentences minimum.
