M.+Course+Reflection

Over the course of the year I have experienced growth as a writer. I have learned about the structure of a good essay, things people should and should not put in essays and have improved my grammar and spelling. I have written several papers on topics I did and did not like. I have also learned how to use the website Wikispaces. This year I have found what my writing strengths and weaknesses are.

My favorite peace of work is the Poe parody. The Poe parody was a project that my friends and I worked on. It was a play on the story Little Red Riding Hood. This project was long and very easy to create a story around. My favorite part of this project was drawing a comic strip to go along with the story. We sat around in the library coming up with the characters’ looks and rhyming words for our story. We got a good grade and presented it to the class.

I have made many improvements in my writing. I have learned how to us words and when it is best to us them. I have learned that my strengths are in creativity and in how to try to teach a lesson with what I write. I have also found my weaknesses, some old some new. One that has been with me since I have picked up a pencil and that would be my inability to spell correctly. The only reason that what I am typing now is correct is because of the spell check. I hope to overcome this in the later years. I have learned this year about a web site called Wikispaces. This site has made it easier for me to turn my things in. It also makes it easier to keep track of my work and come back to find my work.

This has been a fast year of English and I have learned a great deal on this subject. I can not wait for more next year. Next year will contain more information and reflecting what has happened in the previous year.
