The Big Semester Lesson !

 Over the course of the semester, I have learned a great deal about how important critical thinking is. Through the  readings and writing assignments, I have been able to improve my ability to analyze texts and to think deeper about things. Also , I have gained a greater appreciation for the power of  A teacher with more energy than a nuclear power plant 

One of the biggest changes in my writing has been my increased focus on structure with the rubrics you have given and the question you gave . I have learned to  Be a thinker and question why things are the way they are. I have also worked on improving my use of evidence and examples to support my arguments sense u yelled at us every time we didn't do so 

Overall, I have grown as a thinker, writer, and speaker through the class. I have learned to approach texts with critical thinking  and  to think of structure, language and the time something was written or said . I have also improved my ability to express my thoughts and ideas in a clearer ways  

One of the things I liked most about the class was the group work. Each  person  provided a different  perspective and their backgrounds gave them different views (for example one person  lived in the place where one of the stories was ) . I particularly enjoyed the discussions we had in class,

One idea that will stick with me was the power of empathy in literature. Through the stories and plays. I came to appreciate how literature can help us to understand and connect  emotions and how to spot them better . This idea is something that I will carry with me and apply to my life outside the classroom, as I strive to be a more compassionate and understanding person.

In five years, I see myself  as a thinker, and speaker. And as someone who lacks the ability to empties with people I think this class really helped me to read people better and not to simply read the people in front of me but what they might have gone through to get here because I will never know someone until i open their book up and read it.
