Reflection--Learning from you Classmates
One thing I learned from my classmates was to use figurative language. In her nature essay Jessica Garner does a very good job of this http://docs.google.com/Doc?docid=dhn2ck7j_3dszqqc&hl=en. "My mind is a treasure chest and nature is it's key" in this quotation Jessica uses an excellent metaphor. I have no similes or metaphors in my writings but now I feel like that is important to add. From Dylan Jarrets writing I learned how to make your writing interesting. Dylan's writing is fun to read because he is very sarcastic and at the same time entertaining. I think it is important to make your writings fun to read! http://docs.google.com/Doc?docid=dd84rq4f_3khj3vh&hl=en. Allie Elrod also taught me an important part in writing. Sometimes your pieces have to be positive. When Allie wrote the nature essay she took a very positvie tone. Her piece was fun to read because it was happy and uplifiting. I think we sometimes get too stuck in the negative. Her piece shows that if you take a positive tones at some parts it can help relieve the negative. http://docs.google.com/Doc?docid=dv4pbwk_5gvxd86&hl=en My classmates pieces were excellent and they taught me much. I can now start incorperating these things into my writings!
