DEC 13. Final Blog Post

 How have you become a better reader and/or writer? I become a better writer by repetition. Doing blog post making me write over 250 words per post, pushing me to do more and more. I had a great eng 100 teacher to help me along the way. I learned how to properly put quotes into a paragraph  and before her class i didn't know what a thesis sentence was or how to perform one


I HAVE REALLY ENJOYED THIS FIRST SEMESTER WITH YOU

 What did you like about having a blog in a reading and writing course? i like how you can do the home work on your own time and it over ther internet so if you ever want to change what you wrote you can


 What kind of experience have you had for English 100? Please explain. very educational experiance ! i like how she was always prepared for class. made it fun by useing some youtube videos to show us what she is talking about. she was full of energy and laid back. if you had a question should would explain it well     What would you like to see change with this class including the smaller writing assignments and/or the task papers? i didnt liek the moneyday sessions with the student teacher. wasnt much help and was always late, he didnt know what he was talking about half of the time and couldnt give straight answers
How is the blog similar to a journal? How is it different from a traditional journal? blogging is similiar o a journal because you write it in your own words and it makes me feel more relaxed because it is over the internet i have all the time to finish the assiment during the day so when ever i have a extra thought i can go back to it. it is different because your writing about a specific thing.
How has the blog encouraged you to write more thoroughly or has it not? The blog remind me as a journal not as homework. It makes me feel free writing.

task four evaluatrion

· What is the thesis for your paper? I can relate to Rodriguez’s story because he dealt with the same reading issues that I experience when I was younger.
·
When I was younger i had bad eye site which effected my reading. Mrs. Archer was a teacher that urged me to read more books and expand my mind. My favorite types of books to read are war books and i found this out because Mrs. Archer told me to read it. How much of a better reader that i have become.·
They corrected my grammar mistake which helped me realize that i need to read over my paper out loud so i can catch those mistakes better.·
How to do the work cited page and the quations. I learned how the page is suppose to be setup.How many drafts of this paper do you think you wrote and how/when did you write them? For example, did you compose at the keyboard, did you write lots of notes to yourself, did you pre-write or outline, did you write in small chunks of time or sit down and produce an entire draft at one sitting?
·
I wrote the paper three different times. i started off writing information about my experiances then i found a story that i was very interested in adn starting writing ideas down. Once I found what i was for sure writing about i started putting my ideas into paraghaph fourm and i wrote two pages. Chayse looked over my paper and found several mistakes so i re wrote it and wrotw three pages this time checking over it and correcting it as i went on.What would you do differently with this paper to make it more effectively, or what did you try to do that you just don’t think you got a good handle on?
