This is an opportunity to share our lives and perhaps to learn about ourselves. In each class a variety of prompts are given – images, questions, incomplete sentences, quotations. Each prompt offers room for interpretation. We’ll read our work aloud and listen to each other without judgment. At the end of listening, we reflect back the words or phrases we heard that resonated with us. Here’s what one student wrote about the experience: “The writing prompts were interesting, but the surprise was what they often triggered. Turned out my favorite part of the experience was learning new things about myself and others in the class.” Bonnie taught writing in the Center for Writing program and Drama Production at John Bowne H.S. in Queens for 20 years, taught writing to adults in Great Neck, NYC and Ghana.
