It's the end of the first quarter, and I believe I have done very well. English class was a lot of fun and I was quiet successful! Looking back at it overall, English class was the class that I did well in through the general procedures. I always came to class on time and had all the materials that were needed. Also, I was well prepared, for example putting all the materials I needed for class on my desk so I could have worked efficiently. Also, I tried my hardest to participate in class, even when people contradicted me. I would ask questions or answer them to the best of my ability. I worked well by myself during reading time or writing time. I also worked well with the group work such as the editing group for our literacy narrative. The partner work wasn't the best because I didn't like working with my partner all that much. Other than that, I worked efficiently on what I had to work on for class.
Next quarter there are three elements of class I would like to work on. Two are major, one is minor. The two major elements are strictly studying on my Worldly Wise vocabulary tests and shortening down my essay during class so I can leave at the time of the bell. Also, leaving at the time of the bell is the last element for class that I would like to work on. I leave class later than everyone else. This is because I pack up too slow causing me to be in no hurry, all though I should be so I can get to my next class on time. These three things I will work on and strive to do better for the second quarter.
