From my first draft of my And Then There Were None essay to my last draft, the only thing that I really changed was my spelling and grammar errors. There was nothing huge about my essay that I felt needed changing, because I was happy with how I brainstormed my ideas before and laid them all out.
The form of support that helped me the most with my essay was showing an adult my rough draft. I feel that this helped the most because and adult has more experience with writing, and they've been around reading and writing longer then we all have. Adults can see things like spelling errors that we may not always catch, and showing my mom my essay really helped me improve my spelling and sentence structure.
The things that will help me most this year will be showing an adult my rough draft. I also think a good idea to help me would be to upload my rough draft to my blog, and have my peers comment on anything that they see I should change, or edit about my draft. I think it would be cool to get some feedback from my peers, and get their input on my writings and stories!
As a writer, the thing I want to work on most is expanding my vocabulary. This will help me tremendously with my stories, and being able to provide descriptive imagery and setting to provide my reader with a strong picture in their heads.
I hope that we can upload rough drafts to our blog, because I think that will really help all of us as writers, and help us get feedback from our peers too!
I love the idea of uploading your writing to your blog and getting feedback. I definitely want you all to do that soon! :)
