Bounty of The Magic Tree

Write a story about a unique tree behind your house that grants wishes.

This prompt pushes the 7th-graders to ponder deep into their wishes and the consequences that may follow. The magic tree can be a symbol of desire or dreams. Ask them to consider the different types of wishes it would grant, what potential consequences their granted wish might hold, and how they would cope with these changes. This enables the 7th graders to strengthen their narrative skills and instills a sense of introspection to connect with their deepest desires and dreams.
