Monday, June 16th

Today in class I learned that writing and language are very similar. Writing is much more interesting when the topics are open and writers are allowed to be individuals. I know that my own personal writing sounds very much like how I talk. Students do not always talk with the best grammar (and neither do I). That is probably why their writing is not wrote with the best grammar. I am going to try to focus on not worrying about the grammar as much and just hope that the grammar gets picked up along the way with the creativity.

I am a little worried about the assignment that is due at the end of the week. I am hoping that it will become more clear as the class progresses.

I agree. If you can leave the topics open for students to write what they want to I think that it is easier for them. I think that it does allow for individual expression.
