TELL A STORY

P1.1: CHECKPOINT 1

BANANA STORY

I want to write an overview of what a banana is and what, if any, differences exist between bananas and plantains. This would include a short history of the fruit and its origins, along with a list of “fun facts” about the banana. Lastly, I want to write about why bananas are a healthy food choice and potentially include a recipe of some sort.

MYTHICAL CREATURE

If I will write about a mythical creature, it will most likely be a creature from a Slavic culture. I will write a history of the creature I choose, describe its visual characteristics, and provide information regarding where the creature resides.

UKRAINE

As an immigrant originally from Ukraine, I want people to know that Ukraine is its own sovereign country and not a ‘state’ or town within Russia. If I choose this topic, I will write a short history of Ukraine, provide an overview of its geographic characteristics, and inform the audience of the Ukrainian language and culture.
