Original Prompt

Create a one-page worksheet for high school students titled 'Personal Statement Story Generator'. Include sections for brainstorming core values, identifying significant life experiences, listing personal strengths, and describing a challenge they've overcome. Add space for them to draft a '2-minute story' and map out a narrative arc with three boxes: 'What happened?', 'What I learned?', and 'How I changed?'.

This workshop guides you through the process of crafting a compelling 2-minute personal statement narrative that highlights your values, life experiences, and personal growth. You will brainstorm core values, identify significant life moments, and inventory your personal strengths. The worksheet includes sections for outlining challenges faced, the insights gained, and the transformation experienced. Ultimately, you will draft a narrative that authentically showcases who you are and what you've learned on your journey. Additionally, there are self-assessment criteria included to evaluate your draft against key aspects such as authenticity, growth, and specific detail.
