My approach to writing is very spontaneous however it does have structure, I listen and make sure that I understand what is being asked of me. Most of the time I do end up leaving it till the last minute but I will already have a good idea of what I aim to write so it doesn’t take that long to get things moving when I end up doin it. When I do start writing I just write whatever comes to mind so my first draft will have a lot of spelling errors and won’t be worded correctly. My draft is a lot like when people jot down ideas, it’s quick and not too detailed. Later I will go and make another draft which is giving life, structure, and detail to the quick ideas I had written perviously. Naturally I do two drafts if the topic is very broad but if it is quick and easy to write I will only do one draft and revise it to make sure that the final product is what it needs to be. When going over my draft I correct any spelling errors I might’ve made or fix cumbersome sentences that make my writing hard to read.
I feel like as a writer I can always improve and make sure that when I do write I am getting my ideas across clearly but also making sure that it is impactful. To make sure I achieve this goal I can work on using more writing devices to make my work more engaging and interesting. Another thing I can work on is punctuation, while I use it here and there I don’t think I utilize it enough and it becomes imperative to use when I am working on bigger bodies of work. Making sure I implicate these two strategies I feel would make my writing improve a significant amount.
For my educational narrative I choose to talk about my fourth grade teacher and my struggles with school. Fourth grade was a very big turning point for me and it showed me a lot about my abilities as a students.
My story is one about hardships and overcoming them regardless of how hard they may seem, i believe that people should read it because most people struggle in school and it can feel like a hopeless battle with one’s self but it is always light at the end of the tunnel.
I would hope that people feel inspired to get more involved in there education and to show those who struggle a lot in school that it is possible to achieve good grades.
My fourth grade teacher is involved, my old elementary/middle school, dialogue between me and my mentors. I described thoughts and feelings of distress because of my struggles with school.
Second, review what you have so far and try to label the features of your narrative arc.
Entering into my first day of fourth grade in my old elementary school, my story begins in the yard of my school with dialogue between me and my friends about the teachers we have.
Rising action would be being told how mean of a teacher she was and how hard her class is
Climax would be the gradual struggle with my teacher and the work she had assigned to me.
Falling action would be when I finally got my tutor and started applying myself to my school work
The result would be when when I finally passed the fourth grade and had my final conversation with my teacher and ended on a good note.
