senior plan

For my senior year I will apply for as many scholarships as I can in order to help me with my
financial aid. Also applying for s.g.a will help me in order to get accepted to a college of my
choice. My Sat test score were not all that great and for that i feel more prepared for the
test because now i know how it is set up and i feel more confident to take it again. For my
capstone idea I do not know what I will do but some ideas will eventually
pop up. I am hoping to have a great year and with the help of my teachers and friends pass and
finally graduate out of high school and into a college where I can my degree.

writting reflection

Reflection Paper
In the beginning of the year my writing I would say was awful. I would just write what

ever came to my mind without considering anything about the organization and amount of detail.

My papers would be of a person being a beginner at writing.



As I started to take AP English during the semester I noticed that my papers were

becoming more detailed and being chronologically set up to the way in which every idea I wrote

about had details about that idea in particular and that would be it. There would be no more

ideas jumping around and making my paper switch around.

In order to improve my writing I would read more and try to compare my writing to that .

of the books. Of course it wasn’t exact but it was a guideline for me to know how I was

improving. The essays that my teacher made us write and the way she taught us to write them was

also a way of knowing what your mistakes were .

I feel confident in my writing now. I thank my teacher for helping me in what I needed

in order to become an ascending writer in the ELA rubric. These skills will help me on my way to

college and while I am in college.
