Reflection post:

     The past week I had plans on doing my essay for my English class; and turning it in the following week. I did follow my plans. Although, I was very nervous because I had so many homework to do for my other classes too, so I might have not done so well. But I did use reading strategies and study skills because I needed to read two articles and compare both and I needed to give my position to one of them. As I was reading the articles I was annotating and looking up words I didn't know what they meant. I was writing on the book little summaries, notes and switching words to easier word I could understand. I also reread them to get a better idea about what the author is trying to say. I was successful on completing my plans. Hopefully I was also successful on my essay as well. I will look forward to the coming week because I do have another essay to begin. I will make some adjustments from last week to this week. I will make corrections on my essays for a better grade. Fix all mistakes so when I start another essay I can do better and learn more. Have better grammar and a good thesis statement because I always had trouble with my thesis. Therefore, this way I will be able to write more and have more information. I am going to practice my study skills even more; this will not only help me with my English class but also with my reading class.
