hector & justin writing reflection

hectors reflection

when i came to the 8 grade i didn't really know how to write a good essay. During my time here in the 8 grade i learned a lot about writing for example i learned how to restate the prompt when starting a essay. I also learned how to use transition words when ever i need to in order to make the essay sound interesting. lastly i learned how to outside information to also make the essay sound better and to always include a introduction and a conclusion.
Since i came into the 8 grade i have learned many things about writing and how to improve it.For example writing everything in the correct order to be more organize and that it is important make your paragraphs connect to each other in some way so like that it makes more sense.There are several reasons why having a introduction is important because it introduces what you are about to write about or in some cases what you are about to read and it is also important to have an introduction because it can leave the reader hooked so they will read it to find out some more about it
There are also several reasons why including a conclusion is important, i think that the conclusion is the most important part of the essay because it closes it out.Also because you can write it so many different ways like it can be short or you can try and make it interesting and make it long.

Justin's reflection

when i entered the 8th grade i didn't know how to write a good & interesting essay. I also didn't know how to make my introduction connect to my first paragraph. I learned many things like planning before writing a essay and writing good notes to organize my essay.I also learned how to add my own ideas into my essay and to add outside information to make my essay more effective.If i was to pick one thing that i will remember most of writing a essay it will probably be to restate the prompt i will remember it most because it can make your essay sound really good & interesting & when you use it it will make it easier to write.
Writing in 8th grade was kinda hard & difficult & sometimes frustrating but now i feel a lot better about my writing and writing a essay,i feel like i can write about anything and make it sound great & effective & attractive. Now when i write or write a essay i feel better about it & i feel i could write along time.
