Writing Prompts

1. Maya helped Jenny get out of her comfort zone by singing karaoke with her. Write a paragraph about a time you helped your friend with something.
2. We all get stressed and nervous sometimes. That’s why it’s important to know how to calm down and focus. Make a list of things you do when you’re feeling stressed and explain why they help.
3. Although Jenny wasn’t sure about joining the swim team, by the end of the story she was happy with her decision. Have you ever done something you felt nervous about at first but were later glad you did? Write two to three paragraphs about your experience.
