Your response should describe where you are from. This could be a country, a city, a neighborhood, a family, a culture, whatever you think of as “home”! Describe where you are from with strong words that make me feel like I am there! Write Your Response to a Descriptive Prompt

Your goal is to make the reader see, hear, touch, taste, or smell the thing you are describing.
