Want Ad for a Friend
Pretend that you are trying to make a new friend. Write an ad that describes a friend you would like to find. Think about what age you would like this person to be. Does it matter if the friend is a girl or a boy? What personality traits are you looking for in a friend? What kind of person do you think would make a great friend? Are there any activities that you would like to share with this new friend? If you spend a lot of time rollerblading or listening to music, you might want a friend to share this activity with you. Think about all the things you need in a good friend.
