English 10- A Class I Had
I’ve really come a long way over the course of English 10, but I definitely would like to improve in some areas. I did my learning log most of the time, however I will admit sometimes I waited too long to do my logs. Time management has always been a problem for me, and I hope to improve that skill next semester. The grammar in my writing has improved greatly over this semester. I enjoyed Fahrenheit 451, and through studying it I believe it improved my ability to understand story. Looking back at these learning logs now, and seeing how I kept up with work this year, shows me that I’m improving as a student. This class catered to my interest, as well as taking me out of my comfort zone, and I'm very grateful for that.
Writing Writing has always been a big part of my life. Every year my writing improves, but this year something was different. I will always go on record stating that I prefer to write fiction over real life events. One of the main things I remember from last year is that I had a hard time expressing my opinions and personal experiences. The this I believed essay forced me to open myself up to other people, and as someone who wants to be a writer this is an important skill. I also improved in researching and citing sources, but I will admit I still need to improve in that sense. I definitely have a ways to improve as a writer, but I really improved this year.

Reading While I think I read less than I usually do this year, I think I better understood the books I read. I was better able to understand the messages in the books I read. I think reading books has given me a better understanding of how to structure nonfiction pieces. The reading blogs have helped me learn how to dissect books in a critical way. I want to be a writer, and I know that you need to read if you want to become a better writer.
