1. Looking at the feedback, what/where do you think you did particularly well?
I think I did my time management well. I got the paper in on time.

2. Looking at the feedback, what do you think was the area you need the most
improvement in and why? (Be Specific)
I think I shouldve revised. I totally rushed because I was focused on time. I could learn
my MLA format properly. I should have indented at every paragraph. I shouldve worked
on my thesis. My thesis didnt explain my big idea.

3. Did the loop cycle work for you? Why or why not?
Yes. The loop cycle worked for me. Mrs. Eaton used the loop cycle and it shows you
guidelines on what you need to do. If you follow the loop and do it well you will get a
positive grade.

4. Body paragraph construction is the most important part of your paper since this is the
area that uses evidence to back up your claims. Looking at your paper and feedback,
rate yourself overall on the following elements that correspond to the loop structure.
STRONG
AVERAGE
WEAK
MISSING

5. The big question: based on your comments, checklist where you rated yourself on body
paragraph structure, and overall score, what NEW GOAL do you have for your next
writing assignment? In other words, what skills will you try to focus on in the future and
why?
GOAL:
I will try to focus on taking my time. Quality over quantity I also will reread my paper out
loud.

WHY:
I will take my time because no papers are well written rushed. Also revising is a major key
most of your points taken off will be fixed if you revise them.

6. Any other feedback youd like to share??

I think the way you grade papers are very helpful. You always say whats wrong but give
us a chance to fix it.
