Mid-Term Reflection

        English till now has been a fun and enjoyable class; it is a different experience.  This year majority of my classes are paperless, which is very different from the usual way; a paper and pencil. Overall I think I have been doing fairly well this year, but below are details of what I think I deserve in English 10 till now.

A: My attendance is pretty good. I have been away some classes due to leadership or field trips. Overall though I am always in class on time and I never skip class for fun. If I am not going to be in class, I tell the teacher before hand so they know. I’m usually always on task in class, sometimes I will take breaks in between, but otherwise I’m always paying attention and doing my work. I always try to use my time wisely in class so I have less work, and that I am able to finish my assignment on time. I always respect my peers in class and try to help/participate as much as I can. I usually am involved with the class and act respectfully and responsibly towards the class. I try to talk as much as I can in class discussions or anything else we can take part in. I’m quite aware of my behavior in class and make sure I am respectfully acting towards others, and not being rude. Unfortunately I do not have proof for this, but if you ask others in the class you will know! Overall, I think I deserve 24 percent in this category.

B: Assignment completion has been very good for me till now. I usually have all my assignments handed in on time; sometimes my assignments will be done, but I forget to submit them! If I do forget so submit an assignment I make sure I have afterwards. There are assignments that aren't shown on the blog, but I have still done them regardless. All my assignments have been handed in, rather it be on my blog, or a comment. All fifteen assignments have been completed; when we have to comment I have commented on all. Overall I think I deserve 25 percent in this category. 

C:  I personally put a lot of effort and thought into all my assignments. I do all my assignments to my best ability and make sure I put full effort into them. I work very hard in class on my assignments, adding in as much detail and reasoning as I can. I have done my assignments with lots of effort and hard work; I always put a lot of thought and detail in them. I make sure I explain everything well enough and usually have personal connections in them as well. There are many peers in our class who also have the same kind of idea. They also write quite a bit and add have detail. May of my classmates write very well, and they are a good inspiration to writing. Of course some write less, but still explain there reasoning very well. Overall our class is pretty good and I think everyone has their own personal preference. I think I can improve by adding more personal connections and trying to describe it better. I think sometimes my writing can get confusing, so I need to make sure everyone can understand what I am writing. I personally feel that Erlynn is very good at writing, her work is quite inspiring. She puts a lot of effort in and explains things quite well. I think her being a teenager post was very good, and it explained teenage years very well. Of course there is always room for improvement and I am definitely working on that!  Overall I think I deserve 23 percent in this category.

D:  Class contribution is very important; learning from others and others learning from you is a great thing. I contribute to the class by posting comments, taking part in class discussions, helping people out with assignments, or even sharing ideas with peers. I always communicate with others in the class, and help them with assignments. There have been many times where people have been confused with an assignment or task and I have helped them out with it, or even shared an idea! I personally find it a good idea to discuss ideas and help out others because you both learn something together. I think I have helped people learn things in our class rather it be by a comment/post or by my actions. I’ve commented on blogs before, but I certainly do need to work on that. I don’t get to comment on too many blogs, but I will definitely improve on doing that. I usually help out peers and try to help them understand something when needed or when asked. Overall I think I deserve 22 percent in this category.

        Now if you add up every section the total percentage is 94%. I think overall this is a fair mark, but of course if you do not agree or think I deserve a different percentage, you are free to leave a comment below and explain why. (:
