During this semester in Composition 1, Mrs.

McGriff taught the class how to write an

annotated bibliography and different types of essays, also different grammar rules and more
vocabulary. With the annotated bibliography, I can help myself figure out how a certain source
will influence and help an essay. To go along with the annotated bibliography, I learned how to
write an APA, MLA and Chicago style essays. With learning these different types of essays, I
can now appropriately write those specific types of essays, which will help me in my later years
of college. This class also expanded my vocabulary, which has actually made me sound more
educated inside and outside of school. Mrs. McGriff also taught the class about different
grammar rules. The grammar rules that she taught the class are the pronoun agreement, how not
to write run-on sentences and sentence fragments, the subject-verb agreement, and the pronounantecedent agreement. Along with those different rules, she also taught us how to put use in-text
citations and parallelism. These different rules and helpful grammar tips will help me write the
new types of essays that I have learned within the class.
