Check in!
Hi Mrs Cline I am doing my mid term check in. I have never been the greatest writing and honestly if I didn't have to take this class I wouldn't cause writing scares me. I have tried really hard this semester to work really hard and understand what is need of me. I will say it's been hard but I am always willing to try. What I am hoping for the rest of the semester is try really hard to still figure out the whole writing thing. I wish I was as good of a writer like some of the people in the class it would be a lot easier. The reading in the class has been really good I have liked everything we have read and it's something I would tell other people to read. Literary Analysis is a totally different thing I have done, we never did it in high school so when I first did it, it was totally new to me. I wish that my teacher before would have shown us how to do these because it would have been better and I wouldn't think I totally suck at this. Winter's Bone was my favorite story that I have read in a long time, I think it was really sad that these children had to go through something like they did but it was interesting to read. I have known that drugs do bad things to family because I have never meet my uncles because of it so it can tie people apart. Life is never simple so doing this class I knew it wasn't going to be simple and I really want to pass it because i need it for my degree and also I would feel I accomplish something I thought I couldn't.

Brenda,
ReplyDeleteIt's good that you are completely honest about your midterm check in. Don't feel bad, I think writing scares a lot of people, and it can be very difficult. Literary Analysis was a tough style of writing for me as well. This was the first class that I was introduced to this style of writing as well. I think it would have been much easier to grasp had I been exposed to it earlier on.
Hi Brenda,
ReplyDeleteFirst of all, take pride in your writing! Everyone has to start somewhere and it is great you are in this English course to work on your writing. I agree, literary analysis is different from writing in high school. The videos and lectures help a lot though. Keep working and you will reach your goals as a writer.
