Esol/Reflection

• What was the best lesson and why? The best lesson was when we were asked to write an essay. It was easy because we can choose any topic that we'd like to write about. Writing an essay was the easiest thing to do because I like writing a lot. So far this is the only work that I've put so much effort into, I was so focused and I didn't wanna even get distracted but back then I was easily distracted and it would ruin my work. So the best work so far that I did was writing an essay. 
• What did you enjoy doing and why? I enjoyed writing a lot. I don't actually do so much work for this class but when we were asked to write something I did a lot of writing and it was fun because writing is my favourite to do in class. I also enjoyed the test last term. We did a spelling test and I got a perfect score. I enjoyed doing the spelling test because I'm really good at spelling.
• What was one task you were proud of and why? The task that I am proud of was the essay we wrote last week, I did a lot of writing and I think that made my teacher proud because I actually don't do so much work for her class,  so when she saw my essay writing she said some positive words and I was very happy that I finished some work.
• What is something you could do differently/better next term? I would say my behaviour in class. I am easily distracted and sometimes I'm very loud and uncontrollable when my friends do something funny and I'II just laugh as hard as I could. My behavior needs to change so that's what I'm doing next term. I also need to do some work because in this class I don't do so much work, so that's probably what I could do differently next year.
