My Writing Assignments

Like most people, writing has made an impact on my life. I didn’t notice it right away, but once I did it changed my life forever. I consider myself to be a fairly decent writer and I would say it was the only thing that kept me going. I love writing that involves thinking and real emotion. Writing journals and letters have helped me get through a lot in my life and that is really something I will never forget.

Just like with many aspects of myself many things helped in the contribution of my reading and writing skills. It was a bit difficult in the beginning learning to read and write in English since I learned to read and write in Spanish first. Both languages being pretty similar kind of screwed me up as a child so it took me longer to learn to read and write in English. Which in turn is why I was put in the ELD for many years. I did eventually test out of it before starting middle school, but that’s when my dislike for reading and writing started. Being in those programs they made us read and write even more than the normal students would. I would think now that all that work should have made me better at reading and writing but in turn it made me resent those very things and not any better at them. Another thing that made it worse was my family status, things in my home were complicated to say the least, but the way I was affected academically was because neither of my parents really cared for my education, so I was never made to read or write at home. Those two main things are where my dislike for both things originated. Since I never thought they were important other than to just get a grade in a class. All these things helped contribute to the type of reader and writer that I am today.

A few areas that the writing specialist pointed out in which I need to review and refresh. 1. Fully

First off, I want to thank you for making this year and my first honors English experience fun for me! Though this year was challenging for me, it has also been extremely knowledgeable. From my freshman year to sophomore year, I can definitely notice the difference in my writing and reading. I can definitely see how much I have grown, and I am sure you could see these improvements too. Last year, I was in regular English and jumping from regular to honors was a huge step for me, which at first, I was not fully comfortable with. But as I got to know this year’s class and of course you, Mrs. Walker, I felt like I belonged here, in an honors English class. Throughout this year, I have learnt and improved at my skills of properly annotating texts, writing a proper claim, analyzing author’s style, and also analyzing rhetorical situations.

Abstract: Cell membranes play an important role in regulating what goes in and out of the cell. Diffusion, the process of movement of substances across the cell membrane from higher concentrations to areas of lower concentration, plays an active role in the transport and the regulation through cellular membrane. Sometimes, there are cases when cells are placed in hypotonic solutions and substances will diffuse through the cell membrane too much and will result the cell to hemolysis, causing it to swell and rupture. In this lab, we observed and recorded the time it took for diffusion of a propanol series substance to diffuse through a mixture of ovine blood to

If I was given a writing assignment of a 12 page paper a month in advance what would the Ideal me do? I would begin by prewriting to get a good idea of what exactly I will put in my paper. Understanding that waiting until the last minute isn’t going to help, so I would begin focusing on what exactly is the main purpose of this paper so that I can ask or question myself and with the answers I get can also give me a general Ideal our outline of this paper.

Surprisingly, only 12 of the 51 students tested with self-imposed deadlines (roughly 27%) chose to submit their papers on the last day of the semester. Some of these students still handed in their papers before they were due, without a rigid schedule enforced by the class. However, the remaining 39 students with earlier deadlines, chose to forgo utilizing the extra allotment of time to avoid even the temptation of procrastinating. The other 48 students, with fixed deadlines, had to maximize their efforts, with the limited time they had, to work more

Working a full-time job, raising children, and attending college are all not easy tasks, as many would agree. As a parent, I have difficulties in managing and prioritizing my time. Hence, I am forced to sacrifice many things, including my social life and spending quality time with my family. This semester I had to cope with many personal issues, including focusing on my English 1100 class. Amidst all that I am very grateful to my instructor McCaughey. Not only has he been super supportive but also definitely helped me grow as a writer. With his style of teaching and as well as a motivator, I tackled my writing issues. Through this class, I gained confidence and was able to learn about how to develop my ideas in a writing process .I learned

Thank you for taking the time to write me from your busy schedule. Out of all the English classes I've taken in high school, I've definitely learned the most in your class. I really missed your class, I was hoping that I'd have you again this year. Thanks for everything mrs. Forrest, happy holidays!

We all have dreaded the moment when we get to class and you look to your right; to see your elbow partner with her assignment out and complete. No matter if it's a ten point daily assignment or a 100 point project. It’s that moment where thousand of the situation go through your head, “can I make any excuse”, “did I accidentally leave my paper on the kitchen table”. Then you come to realize that I might be better to just fess up and maybe get help. Most students will have gone through this situation by the time they graduate high school. The cause of having a paper late lead to the effects of not being mental focus for the rest of the day or emotional/physically giving up for the day.

Everyday people constantly judge and define society. Decades after decades the world still deals with the same problems. Things that we cannot change such as eye color, hair texture, and mostly skin color. News, radio, soap operas, books, and movies constantly shows the difficulties African Americans, Latinos, Asians, and Muslims face. Media messengers tells who society has to look up to, admire and ridicule.

As I continue to make progress on my essays for our first take-home test, I wanted to reach out to you and ask if we could meet on Tuesday, October 10th during your office hours?

My goal is to succeed in this class. And as always, I thank you for your

Looking back to all the writing assignments that I completed during the course of the semester, I feel that I have gained a large amount of knowledge in a variety of different works. The Literary Response papers helped me gain insight on the culture and beliefs during the period that we were studying; and the Homework assignment papers allowed me to further research and analyze works so that I have more of an in depth knowledge about the pieces. Learning about the different cultures, has in a sense affected my views about artworks. Before I would not have given much thought to some of the artworks that I saw, but after learning about the pieces, I feel that my opinions on artwork in general has changed quite a bit.
