Class: Senior English Teacher: Ms. Figueroa

Assignment Title: Q1 Mid-Unit Revision (Senior Paper)

Student Writing Goal: My writing goal is to score 90% or higher on all of my assignments in order to pass this class
with an A by the end of this semester. I also want to improve my writing and grammar skills, and get a perfect score
on my essays.

Instructions:
1) Re-read the paper (and teacher feedback).
2) Complete this reflection sheet.

What was the purpose of this writing assignment?

The purpose for writing this assignment was to write our senior paper earlier, and we had to choose a social
topic of our choice. For this assignment we had to include a personal claim and claims that went against our
topic.

How did you perform in relation to the expectations of the writing rubric?
I think I performed to the best abilities on this assignment. I put a lot of thought and work into my writing,
sentences, works cited, and paid a lot of attention to how my sentences flowed. I spent a lot of time writing it
in order for it to be effective towards the reader.

What aspect of this piece did you do well? (give example/quotes to support claims)
I think I did well on my sentences and vocabulary because they weren’t repetitive. I also believe that I did
well on my counter claims because they were just as effective as my actual claim. Finally, I think I did well
on the length of my paper, I provided a lot of back-round information to back up my claims on this topic to
make my paper more credible and believable.

Why have you/haven’t you chosen to revise this writing assignment?

I chose to slightly revise this assignment because not everything is perfect, I also received a 95% on the
assignment. I had a couple of contractions in various sentences. There was also sentences that needed some
improvement and changes.

What will you do better in your next writing assignment, and how will I do it?
For my next writing assignment I will take more of my free-time to do extra research on my topic, such as
watch documentaries and read books to formulate my thoughts better when writing my paper. I will also try
to work on it as early as possible, and make sure that the information that I collect is the absolute best source
to use.

To what degree of success did you achieve your previously stated goal(s)?

I did not fully achieve my previous goal from last semester, which was “to reduce my time procrastinating”.
At some point I feel like everyone procrastinates on their work, but the amount of time that I slacked on
mines was unnecessary. I don’t necessarily think that procrastinating is a negative thing though, it can relieve
stress and it is good to take break sometimes, despite that I will still try to reduce the time that I do slack and
do my work instead.

3) Revise the paper accordingly and highlight any changes.

4) Submit the revision and this reflection sheet.
