SENIOR SUPERLATIVES
You get to write the page in the school yearbook with the senior superlatives…and there’s no voting! You get to choose all 10 superlatives yourself! For this assignment, you may choose superlatives from the list below or you can invent your own. Remember that superlatives should not be based on genetics, but on personality, abilities, and talents.
Format Requirements:
The superlative statement
Your recipient
34 sentences (or more if you like) on why this person has “won” this superlative
2 supporting quotations from other people
Example:
Most likely to become President of the United States: Little Debbie
Little Debbie is more than qualified to be president of the United States because she is a natural-born citizen of the United States, she has been a permanent resident in the United
States for at least fourteen years, and she is over the age of 35. But most importantly, everything in her closet is Red, White, and Blue… so she’s ready. In addition, her snack cakes are delicious so when she says, “Let them eat cake,” no one will mind one bit.
“I’ve known little Debbie since she was knee high to a grasshopper. In the third grade she was elected class president and as such convinced the school principal to sell Little Debbie snack cakes in the school cafeteria. She’s embodied the spirit of entrepreneurship ever since.” – Debbi Fields, owner of Mrs. Fields Bakery
“My best friend, Little Debbie, cooked her first cupcake in her Easy Bake Oven at the age of three and it was delicious.” – Little Donna
