The best memory about this class is that we all came together. We did it as friends and family. No matter what you were into or wanted to write about it all sort of came together so that everyone had a chance to write what they wanted to. The easiest thing in this class was the writing. It was kind of flowed together. It made us think but it was easy. The most difficult thing was the spelling. I can't really spell right but there were people who helped me through it. I think I enjoyed writing on my own because I could come up with anything and go where ever in my story without having to ask someone else what they wanted to do. My best piece of work was probably the class writing. A good way to come up with good stuff is working with someone who knows more about writing then you do. I improved as writer by working with people who have a different mind about writing. The people in this class has taught me so much about how to improve my work. I am a procrastinator because I did leave things until the last minute. I try to avoid it by putting a sticky note on my TV telling me to do my work. Sometimes that works and sometimes it doesn't. I don't know why I avoid doing my work. I guess its because when I'm at home, I'm bored a lot so I don't want to work. I read a book or go on youtube or just watch TV. I didn't really struggle with this class but if I had to answer it was probably the group writing because people have different ideas then I do. I liked using the wikispace in class because everything we need is on it. We don't have to search for it in our bags or on our laptop folders. I think that Ms. Doughty and Ms. Terrill were great teachers, guides, co-creators, and project leaders. I liked their roles because they helped all of us when we were stuck on something. They gave us new and great ideas to write about. They tried to give us something to look forward to in the morning and they did. I enjoyed coming to school knowing that I will once again have this class that day. I didn't really like how my region came out. I guess I just couldn't write what was in my head and what I thought it should look like. I did however, like my charater. I think that she was what I wanted her to be and more. I could have had her have less problems like her parents. I guess I should have thought more about what I wanted for her and the region. I don't really have any suggestions but one. I think we should have had more time to write the final battle. I would have liked to finish it. I loved the closeness that we all had. We didn't just become friends, we become family. Good job and keep it up.. I hope to see you next year.
