PERFORMANCE TASK: Lesson 1
Our life stories may be our own, but they can be mirrors
of other people’s, too, and therefore, can be a source of
inspiration and relatability to them. Your goal is to
create a short vignette of a life experience about
something you observe in your daily life. You are an
aspiring writer who is building up a portfolio to be
submitted to a publishing company. Your target
audience are the screening editor of the company. The
challenge is to convince them of your skill in writing fact-
based short stories. You will need to write a vignette
using imagery, figures of speech, diction and specific
experiences. A commendable literary work must be
original, uses different literary devices and techniques
and clearly presents the experience. Write your output
in a short bond paper.

Reminder:
What makes a story a vignette?
A vignette is a scene or a descriptive sketch. It might focus on
a single moment or an image, or it may give a particularly
distinct impression of a character or setting. It can be as short
as under 500 words. It will usually have 1-2 short scenes,
moments, or impressions about a character, an idea, a theme,
a setting, or an object.
