In English class today we worked on a timed writing. The timed writing was ok and I wrote about Beowulf. Tomorrow there will be a Socratic seminar. So far I'm really enjoying this class because it is helping me improve my writing skills and my skills as a reader. I can now analyze more difficult texts easier thanks to it, and I can even write faster. I still need to work on expanding my ideas more, and providing evidence for what I write, but I will get there hopefully by the time I have to take the AP test. Even though the class is in the morning I don't really care because I actually wake up even earlier to get to school on time. Doing this will help me do the same for college and future jobs. I have attained a lot of great knowledge through this class even though many people complain about it.
In terms of my Pre Calculus class we are learning about matrixes right now. I love this class a lot because I always learn new things in math. In the past I never really liked math because I always struggled in it. This class helped push me harder than I ever had in any math class in the past. I just love enjoying learning new materials and the teacher is great as well. I'm always happy when I go to the class.
These two classes helped me improved as a student in different ways. I am grateful to have these classes, and I will continue to work hard in them both. I always love tackling challenges and these classes at times are these, but I still managed to enjoy myself doing the work.
