English
IV Reflection Paper
At the beginning of this year I knew how
to write a formulated essay the night before it was due. This year I learned
how to plan creative essay. Before this year I did not think that I could
convey my thoughts and analyze if it wasn’t the classic formula. Now I know
that I can and that the non-traditional way actually makes my points stronger.
Our discussions in class allowed me to formulate ideas that I later used to
write my paper. I really liked watching Hamlet because I absorbed the classic
literature while getting an alternative source to compare it to. My hamlet
essay was my favorite essay to write. I think that next year I will need that
skill at Emerson where learning is not traditional. iPads made reading
different but different was good once we switched to Subtext. Free reads was a
fun and important activity because he helped me build my stamina and remember
that I do love to read. I have loved all of my classes that I have taken with
Dr. Forman. I know that I will have the study skills he has taught me, the
confidence he has given me and the creativity that he has allowed me to explore
forever.
