Journal 2 Task

Dear students, 

After finishing your Autobiography Task, it's time for you  to reflect on what you have done and learned during Writing 1 class and what you will do next. You are to write your second journal entries which covers these questions:

1. In this writing class, what have you learned? 
2. What do you believe you still need to work on more?  
3. How/can you use what you have learned in other contexts?
4. What will you do in preparing your Writing midterm test?

It also should contain your reflections and impressions about the weekly writing classes. Express yourself freely about the progress you get if there is any and why, or if you feel you don't get any progress then write about it along with the reasons and suggestions to overcome the root-causes, if there is any.

Your journal entries should be freely written without worrying about making mistakes in grammar, spelling, and punctuation marks. 

Write your journal in about at least 150 words and publish it.

From your previous journal, there are some of you who wrote an outstanding and reflective journal. It's good for you to peek on their journals to get inspired. :)

They are: Yosephine (Class D), Gisel (Class D), and Jeremy (Class C)

Good luck!
