End of the Quarter Blog

This was a fun class, and I learned a lot about how to be a better writer.  I learned how to get my information and to equally distribute it within my essays and papers.  The old me would start at the beginning of my paper and list all the information I have, and for the rest of the paper I would stay on the same subject and try to come up with the pages.  Now I know that their needs to be and intro with a thesis, that states your three main points you want to talk about in your paper, you body, which has to explain your three main points, and the conclusion, which sums it all up.  Having this format for my essay helps out  because it helps me to keep my notes and information organized on paper.  Also Mrs. Boland helped me out a lot by showing me different ways to write and showing me how to look for more then one source for my paper.  This course will help out a lot for my future classes to come where i have to write essays, because i will be so used to writing them by then that they will come second nature and be easy and done in the right manner.  Besides learning to write this class also helped me to read and understand my material further.  Usually when i would read i would get the idea, but i wouldn't take it further and annotate and get in depth with that paper until now.  This class taught me how to, overall, become a better writing and reader which is going to be a great help as a continue with my college career.
