List 4 areas from the rubric that provide you with the greatest learning opportunity. Feel free to include areas that confuse or confound you. Spend a few sentences elaborating on each choice.
- The organization piece I feel provides me with the greatest learning opportunity because knowing myself I am unorganized when I write. So having a guide such as a rubric should help me organize my thoughts better.
- The conversation piece also helps me with my essay because making sure I am having a conversation with the reader but not going too far into the conversation. It is a guide that will help not go off what I want to discuss.
- Writer as driver section I feel will help me because it helps me keep my points straightforward and to make sure I’m not confusing. Also, having a flow with the statements I want to prove.
- Position and intro will have an impact on my writing because the introduction either will grab the reader’s attention or just pushed aside. This helps me make sure my thesis is stated and making a statement on my opinion is proved.
Somethings that are confusing:
- One thing that is confusing or seems challenging is forming sentences into the format that we went over. The structure of it and trying to remove sentences is challenging. Such as we discussed in class, we wrote the essay and we think it is good because we know what it means. But there are always ways of improvement but trying to find them is hard.
I’m not sure if I understand what you mean about forming sentences into “the format we went over.” Do you mean the TREAC and Barclay paragraphs? Let’s meet and talk if this is the case. I can be super helpful to use these formulas as you organize your paragraphs.
