Policy Proposal Through the Lens of Experience

✨ Writing Prompt

Imagine that you are a parent advocating for a policy change in your local school district. Choose a specific policy issue that affects elementary children, such as increased recess time, healthier lunch options, or improved access to extracurricular activities. Instead of merely stating the benefits of the policy, use descriptive anecdotes from your child’s experiences to illustrate its importance. For example, instead of saying 'more recess time will help children focus better,' show a scene where your child struggles to concentrate in class after a long day without play, then brightens up after recess and engages enthusiastically with their classmates.
