Overview:
This is a Creative Writing Activity. You should use personification of an object (in this case a chair) as inspiration to collaboratively create an adventure story for their character (chair). You should use visual qualities/features of the chair as their spring-board. The story will include a setting, a ‘problem'/conflict, and a resolution.
My question: reading the below story and make the continuing story for next part. (about 1 page) PLEASE. Emphasize adding to and moving into the next section of the story and emphasize the part of problem/conflict.
Personification:
- This chair reminds me of a rigid and timid person whom prefers keeps to them self. This chair is a nervous chair that sits still and quiet in a waiting room. He sits surrounded by other chairs, however he rarely speaks up.
- I chose this chair because it seems like the chair that would get ‘picked last' in a game of dodge ball. He is the nervous and quiet student that no one really knows. Being the person that I am, I always like to befriend these students because I feel that everyone has a story to tell. For instance, this chair may appear gray and plain, but it could be one of the most comfortable chairs in the world.
- My chair's name is Charles the chair. He received this name from me because he appears to be a sophisticated young chair. The name ‘Charles' sounds sophisticated and young as well. This chair likes his name because he feels it describes his personality.
- Charles came to be because a doctor's office wanted to provide comfortable chairs in the lobby/waiting room for their patients. They wanted chairs that would ease the worry of patients going in for check-ups. Charles is a very comfortable chair who doesn't mind being sat on, and providing comfort to others. However, he likes to do so quietly, while the other chairs in the room chat away.
- Charles' voice sounds like a young man who is about the age of 21. It is a little higher pitched for his age, but he sounds very sophisticated and mature. He speaks with great enunciation and eloquence.
- Charles moves by leaning side to side very gracefully; he doesn't make a sound when he toddles side to side. It is almost like a waddle.Setting
- Charles feels out of place. He looks like all the other chairs in the waiting room of the doctor's office, but he doesn't feel the same. Everyone else seems to have a very outgoing personality, but he does not. He sits in the corner of the waiting room quietly, only engaging in conversations with one-word responses because he rarely gets spoken to, this has made him a timid chair.
- Charles knows that his purpose as a chair is to provide comfort for patients who are visiting the doctor's office. Usually, the patients that visit are scared of seeing the doctor or are waiting to hear news from the doctor; they are afraid of bad news about their health. He knows that he is soft, warm, and inviting to patients that are scared at the doctor's office. When he is not being used by any human patient, he feels nervous because no one talking to him or needing his comfort. However, when a person needs his cozy cushions for their body, he feels wanted, needed, and appreciated.
Problem/Conflict:
- Charles realizes that one of the bolts in his legs has made him unstable, making patients move to other seats when they realize he could break. Patients no longer use him, so he feels sad and very unwanted.
Resolution:
- One day, the office receptionist was notified from a young patient that "the chair in the corner is broken." She smiled and said that the chair would be fixed as soon as possible. Charles was very happy to over hear this. At the end of that day, when all the humans went home, the kind receptionist used a screwdriver and other tools to fix Charles' wobbly chair leg. Before the receptionist left to go home, she whispered, "I'm glad I could fix you, we need you to comfort our patients!" Charles smiled on the inside, and felt needed.
