Idea's and Content
When I select my ideas that I am going to write about, I try to pick the best ones to use and not any idea that sounds like I'm desperate for ideas. For example for my Alchemist essay it took me a very long time to think of ideas of how Santiago stayed positive because I thought that my quotes and idea was similar to him being brave, so I do like to think about my ideas and content. To improve how I express my ideas, well I don't really know how I would do that, but I would just use the teachers notes. In both essays I was noted that my ideas apparently don't relate back to the main idea so I think that I should work on that. Also, ask the teacher for help.
Organization
Well, I always follow the structure the teacher wants us to use, because it's stupid if you don't because then you would just completly fail that part of the grade. I have a thesis statement and a conclusion paragraph at the end. I think I could link each paragrapgh more effectively.
Personal Growth
Well, there was a decline it the letter grade. In the Alchemist, I didn't ask for help because I thought i wouldnt have time. When I got an A- I was really surprised because I thought it was bad. I wish now that I had asked for help because I think I could have got an A or A+. In the Brutus essay I think that I was lower because we didnt pratice wrting a whole draft and letting the teachers read it over. I think I could have gotten a higher score if the teachers proof read it. I'm not so good at pointing out my mistakes.
SLR Reflection
Reason Critically. I use this slr because I try to pick the best ideas and the right way to express my ideas.
