Reflection

One of my goals for this quarter was to improve my writing. I think thats going pretty well because I have already learned some new writing tips. One of them was to show instead of tell and that really helped me because I think that my writing has improved since when I first came to this class. I've already improved my writing a bit, so I'm sure that by the end of this quarter, it will be a lot better. My second goal was to get better vocabulary and not to use ordinary words. This goal hasn't exactly been met yet, but I think on the last couple of pieces I wrote, I used better words. The showing vs. telling helped for my second goal to because instead of just using ordinary words to describe experiences, I used more visual words. I have learned some new words too. I also used similes and metaphors. Overall, I think that mostly, my goals were met.
