English this year was really
fun. All the films and projects we did
were a blast especially the Calgary Academy Awards and the Poetry anthology
project. I do not really have a favourite
part this year in English, because I enjoyed everything we did. Whether you like a subject or not it most
likely has to do a bit with the teacher.
I feel that marking hard on essays and assignments is a good thing
because it is how they mark in Universities and Colleges. It is good preparing for what is to come and
what to expect later on in life. All the
films we watched matched all the questions we had to answer for essays. There is not much I would change or want to change;
I think overall it was an average year for everyone. I know some people didn’t have the best year
but I enjoyed it a lot. The format and
the chronical order we did things was fine, and I don’t have much to complain
about since we could rewrite the essays if we got them in on time. The idea of being able to rewrite an essay I
feel is a good idea because it gives us a second chance. Even though we will not be able to rewrite in
Universities and Colleges it gives us, another opportunity to write better and
gives us a better chance of doing better later on in life. It also helps us improve in our writing an
English overall is the most important subject because if you can’t communicate
or write to people it can be difficult to find jobs and to understand what
others are saying. It helps when
teachers are easy going but it also helps when they push you to finish projects
assignments and on time because, once again you don’t get a second chance to
rewrite or fix things in Universities and Colleges. Thank you Mrs. Harstone for
an awesome year!
