Metacognitive Blog: And Then There Were None
Meta cognitive Blog: And Then There Were None
1) I specifically change the way I worded my essay and my grammar from my first draft to my final essay. The first way I worded my essay was hard to understand but had good content. After rereading my essay a million times I fixed the way I worded my essay and made it more understanding and fluently. I also had a ton of grammar errors but thoughts were easy to fix.
2) The from of support that helped me the most was the peer review checklist. I think this helped me the most because I had someone who I knew would give me good advise to my make my essay as best as it could be. I also think it helps more to have a peer edit it rather then an adult because they know what the teacher is looking for while as an adult might not. Overall, I think having a peer edit your paper is the best form of support.
3) This year to help improve my writing I can learn how to make my sentence structure better. I need this because I always have trouble with explaining things in great detail when they don't need to be. This would help it so my pieces of writing are more fluently because the of the better structure of my sentences.
4) I have room to grow in many places as a writer, but mainly on increasing my vocabulary and getting better at spelling. My goal this year is to improve on my vocabulary, by using a better substituted word for words that are used too often.

I'm glad to hear that the peer review and checklist helped you the most. Don't worry - We will ALL work on sentence fluency and diction(word choice) this year. Aren't you lucky!? :)
