B. Establishing a Motivation: Read the short story, identify the first person point of view.
purpose for the
lesson The Mirror
I have always been fascinated by mirrors. They reflect back our image, but
they can also show us something more: our inner selves.
When I was a child, I used to stare into the mirror for hours on end. I would
try to make different faces, or imagine myself as someone else. I was
fascinated by the way my reflection changed depending on my mood and my
surroundings.
As I grew older, I began to see the mirror as a more powerful tool. I could use
it to examine my own flaws and imperfections, and to challenge myself to
become a better person.
One day, when I was in high school, I was standing in front of the mirror and
I suddenly saw something different. My reflection was older, wiser, and more
confident. I could see the strength and resilience that I had developed over the
years.
I realized that the mirror was not just a reflection of my physical appearance,
but also of my inner self. It showed me who I was, and who I could be.
From that day on, I have used the mirror as a guide. I stand in front of it every
day and I ask myself: "Who am I? What do I want to achieve? How can I be a
better person?"
The mirror always has an answer. It shows me my strengths and weaknesses,
my hopes and dreams. It helps me to stay focused on my goals and to never
give up on myself.
I am grateful for the mirror. It is a powerful tool that has helped me to
become the person I am today.
