Guidelines:
Your essay must include standard, academic formatting, including title, thesis idea, well-developed paragraphs, effective transitions, and, last but not least, an introduction and conclusion.
You should carefully review the strategies for writing a Narrative essay.  The personal narrative must include background information, details, action and tension that not only tell a story, but make a point about a lesson learned or personal experience.  The narrative covers a short amount of time, so do not tell the whole story:  zoom in on the experience that highlights the lesson learned. Review sample essays and model the writer’s techniques.
