Your last day to live...
This may be an uncomfortable topic to some of you, but the reality is, death happens.
A former student of mine died last summer right before school started. I was able to go in and copy and paste her writing submissions into a word document that I was able to print and give to her mother. Although I knew the writings would probably make her cry, the mother wrote me a letter expressing how grateful she was to know that her daughter would have wanted to spend her last day on earth with her mother.
Writing situation: Today is the last day of your life.
Writing direction: Explain how you want to spend the last day of your life. Please be respectful of others when writing your response.
