Final Thoughts

 

  My favorite assignment that we did in this class is 6 Word Memoirs. I thought they were super cool and it was very interesting to put something big out there using only 6 words and a picture. I also liked placing the words with a picture. This assignment was fun and a great way to express ourselves.

I liked all the assignments we did in this class but, the one I enjoyed doing the least was Newspaper Blackout Poetry. I thought it was really cool. I could never come up with something like that, its interesting and looks sweet. But I struggled with this one a lot. It took me a while to get into it.

Friday reading is my favorite thing about this class. I have never been a reader. I just always found it hard to sit down and read because I am the sort of person who gets distracted fairly easily. Since this class, I love to read. Ive read a total of 4 books this semester. I know thats not really alot but for me thats pretty good! Its improved my reading skills so much and Im really excited about it.

Monday written reflection wasnt always my favorite. I dont really have a reason why. I mean, I dont mind them but they werent my favorite. 

The WRN is something I definitely could have put more effort into. The concept of it is really cool and would be great to look back on years from now. I wish I was more consistent with it.

Having a blog was extremely new to me. At first, I was a little hesitant of it but throughout the semester I began to become more comfortable with it. I actually like having a blog. Its sweet to get my feelings/ thoughts/homework out there and have people share their opinion or know that someone out there agrees. I plan on keeping my blog and hopefully keeping it fairly updated.

Tweeting was also something that I was pretty new to. I used to think that having a Twitter account was silly and that it was pretty much facebook without the pictures. This class opened me up to the idea and showed me I was wrong. I found out that I can learn a lot from Twitter and its pretty cool! I started to check my twitter more often and now I really like having it. One day I want to get to 100 Followers. 

Personally, Im really happy we used technology in this class. I learned that technology is not only for talking to people and things like that. I can use it to learn things and write things and everything like that. This class wouldve been way different without technology. It brought some fun into the class.

I learned A LOT about myself as a reader,writer thinker and creator this semester. This class was very good for me I think. As I was saying above, it brought the reading out of me. Im so thankful for that because I love to read and I'm excited to keep reading. As a writer, I learned that I didnt actually know that much about writing. There was lots of different styles and techniques I learned in this class that will come in handy for sure in the future.

Ms. McLauchlan, you are a really cool teacher. Also youve taught us a lot of things that are worth learning. Thank you so much for that!
