3. EXAMPLE FROM MS. A’S LIFE Sally Sarcastic, fiercely loyal, patient, corny Daughter of Daisy and Stanley Loves coffee, summers, and food from all over the world Feels anger at discrimination, successful after overcoming obstacles, and excitement to meet and teach her students Needs occasional solitude, sleep, and a good movie or song Gives hugs, praise to those who feel they are lost, and time Fears frogs, being late to something important, and heights Would like to see more people be kind to one another Resident of Gainesville, Virginia Atkins
