Hook: Mom
Background info: she works at a park
Thesis: (Your thesis statement should include the person/event AND the why you think or behave differently as a result of their influence)
I love to help my mom at the park when she has an event or something.
Body Paragraph 1:
Tell your story here. Include the two “why” points listed in your thesis/claim statement. Make sure each paragraph convinces the reader that this person is worthy of your admiration. You could focus on the person’s character, accomplishments, personality, etc. You may choose to write about how you relate to the person.
Body Paragraph 2: Discuss how your experience has changed your perspective. Remember to be clear why these attributes bring you inspiration to think or behave in a certain way. Also, remember that graders of your essay come from different backgrounds, so you will need to be careful to explain details that the average person may not be familiar with.
Conclusion: My mom's hard work at the park has inspired me to help people. Her kindness, perseverance, and love for making people happy have made a lasting impact on me. I am grateful for the opportunities to help her and be a part of the events she organizes. I will always carry her lessons with me, striving to make a positive difference in the world, just like she does every day.
