English 11 – Year End Review

     This year in English I learnt about a variety of subjects. I learnt a lot about psychology and different forms of allegory, forms of poetry and MLA format. Learning the background information like the operation behind Lord of the Flies or understanding how our brains work was interesting. I liked reading The Lottery the most. It was the first time I had read a story with such a twist, and I still remember the activity clearly. I was so scared of being picked in the lottery, yet it was so thrilling. I liked the Death of a Salesman unit the best. It was fun watching classmates act out their roles and really brought the play to life. I believe my ability to make my ideas transition and flow from sentence to sentence has improved. I have also improved my ability to write clearly and straight to the point without having too many unnecessary words or sentences. I want to improve my spoken word skills. I love to present and have always wanted to go in front of the school, but I cannot write spoken word poems well. If my poem was good enough and I had a strong topic I was passionate about, I would not hesitate to enter the finals.
