Some of the writings we had to do that made me think and learn ahead was the project of Monsters , this made my thinking go ahead because we had to put a lot of thought into it, it was a lot of information to gather and explain. We did over 1,400 words for our essay, so it was a big part of our grade. It was really hard for me because it was so much information to get and make it all sound right when we present. It was also difficult to present because we had to shorten it up so we can give them a lot of information but in smaller words so it isn’t as long.
Some things i found challenging was presenting and writing a lot this was a struggle for me because i wasn’t comfortable talking in front of people and i was scared i was going to get made fun of which happened a few times , but it scared me because i didn’t want to say a word wrong because if i did it would make me feel embarrassed. How i overcame on presenting was to be more confident but i still am scared to present but some things i do is to think to myself and re-read what im going to present so im not to scared. Why writing was a struggle for me is because i would need a lot on information to write, i would get confused what to write and how i would explain it for people to understand. I would always get scared on getting my grade back because i didn’t want to have a low grade, How i overcame not having writing to be a struggle is to ask teachers questions and for them to explain it to me.
The struggles i still haven’t overcame was presenting and talking in front of people, i get scared talking in front of people because i feel like someone will make fun of me and say something bad about me and it’ll make my confidence on talking go down. Before i talk in front of people/crowd i talk to myself telling myself itll be okay and nothing bad will happened and re-reading what im going to present.
My new insight on reading and writing is its a good way to learn new things because it gives you information on the topic your learning, as well as writing its a way to explain your topics and express what you have learned. My insight of public speaking is a good way to speak your mind and what’s important, for me i am still scared to public speaking. My insights on life in general is that i am scared for the future and whats gonna happen for my education life but more important is others because there been a lot of bad things that have happened to people.I will focus on education so as i grow up ill get the job i need and i could have my own career.
