Assignment # 7 :)
As I look back to my first class i do feel like i am making a progress on my goals for this class because I feel like the tips Miss. Spencer has been giving us really helps us improve our writing skills. I also feel like i tend to give in more detail as i write without writing too much and being precise. I feel like there isn't anything that has not helped me. Everything we go over in class has been very helpful and I can definitely say that i used most of the tips we go over. If i could change something in class to better facilitate my learning process it would probably be to have more group work instead of just reading everything on a power point. I think both are very helpful but we should have more peer reviews and things to communicate with our classmates. My writing process has pretty much stayed the same simply because I can focus better the way i do it so i don't plan to change anything. My writing however has indeed improved because of the phenomenal tips Miss Spencer has been giving us all semester for our essays and our work.

Assignment # 6 :)
For my Ad paper, it for sure changes its audience and everything that pertains to writing a paper. For example, in my narrative essay the person who was writing was me to keep an audience interested in reading the paper. My ad essay still keeps an audience but it is not me who necessarily is writing for them but the author of the ad. My job is basically to explain why the person who made the advertisement made it and what is it telling me.The rhetorical situation will make me write my paper differently because it is more of a comparison paper and explaining the ad rather then just telling a story to someone.

Assignment # 4 :)
Many of the times throughout all of my school career i never really had a lot of things to changing my final draft from my rough draft. This time was the only time where i really had to go deep into my writing skills and actually make a lot of corrections. For example, i had to change a lot of run on sentences that i had. I never knew i actually made a lot. I also had to stop repeating the sames words and the same topics. A lot of the times i would repeat things only with different words. If it wasn't for peer revising i would've just read my essay and thought it was complete because like i say in my essay i am a pretty good writer and speller it's just for other mistakes i never pay attention to them.
Some aspects of my essay that I think are the strongest is my spelling and my use of being very detailed. I think i can actually make an audience mentally see my essay. Some aspects that i think are the weakest might be the fact that i just write and spell but always mess up on run on sentences and such.
