Advancement in Writing

Ever since the start of the school year I think that my writing has began to change. I also think it has been for the better. In high school I rushed through papers not caring so much as to just get them done. Now I realize I take the time to read everything through and correct the errors I made by just zooming through those papers. Also the revision of my paper and of others has changed a bit. Now, I take the time to go through my paper and others and break each part of the paper down. Overall, I think my writing and critiquing has advanced and is at the level where it should be right now.

On the Scoring rubric i would end up giving "Whole World" a 6. There were very little flaws if any and i thought the style of this paper was in order. It is written in a very powerful, precise language to get her point across about her trip to brazil and the need they have down there. I would have never really thought to travel down to brazil and this paper kind of gets me curious about going there. Last year i met a foreign exchange student from brazil named renaldo, who was a pretty chill individual. I thought the overall structure and all the information she talks about was laid out perfectly. If i had to say there was an error i would say the only minor flaw was that she gets a little repetitive on the vaccines paragraph. This could have been reduced to a few sentences. The pictures are a good visual to where they show what is happening. Overall this was a very good paper with minor flaws that is why i would grade it a 6 on the scoring rubric.

This week we only had one class day, monday, to get the general information on our fourth project. The rest of the time we had an individual meeting to go over our past projects, our grade, ideas for project 4, and and questions we have concerning the class. Overall my meeting went fine. I think that i am going to base most of project 4 on what i have already done for our timed writing. Overall it was a good week.

Fire Friday

Friday in class we were suppose to do our mid semester timed writing assignment to see how were coming along thus far. Unfortunately about half way into our time we encountered one of the famous la fallotte fire alarms. The alarm ended with leaving us very little time to finish and complete a top notch paper. I know I was not able to finish mine having about one paragraph and a couple more sentences of my conclusion still to finish up. Overall, I thought I was doing a pretty decent job on the paper with the time we had, and can hopefully finish it into a good paper.
