    1. I felt like I did really well on being descriptive on my unit 1 essay. I used a lot of details and imagery. 
    2. I felt kind my audience was for people who felt like they were “dumb” or not enough because of school and grades. I used my experiences to relate with people who ever felt that way. 
    3. I feel like my last paragraph was a bit confusing. There’s a huge gap where I should have written more and not rush to finish the essay. I can see why some people might be confused when reading it. I need to fix it and write what I’m missing. 
    4. I will definitely go into more detail on how I overcame the pressure of school and the experience of getting a high grade for the first time felt like.
