Week 8 Growth Mindset

I think my strengths with writing is that my grammar and punctuation is typically pretty good. Because my father in an English teacher, I grew up learning how to write and speak properly. Granted it is not perfect, but I try! To build up this strength definitely comes from the feedback comments; those help me more than anyone will know. It's great that everyone in the class is so respectful towards people's stories and always give positive feedback comments; even if they aren't positive comments, I have noticed that everyone will write them in the most respectful way they can.
My weaknesses are that I usually try and find the easy stories when I should be broadening my outlook on stories like the ones we are given. I really want to try reading stories that are a lot more complex than the ones I have been, so I will start to change all of this in the second half of the semester. I will need to learn to take more risks when it comes to writing, especially because there is so much time to learn how to do that.

  1. It is understandable to find easy stories. I do the same too when I feel like I don’t have enough time. As you transition to reading some harder stories, it may become a usual thing later. It is awesome that you will be taking more risks for the second half of the semester. It is sometimes hard to try something new, but everyone can do what they want to if they are determined. Good luck with the rest of the semester!
