Week 8 Comments and Feedback

 Feedback In

I would rate the quality of my classmate's feedback as very good. They have been very supportive and positive in their comments, but also have some helpful criticism. The most useful comments are when they point out areas in my story that didn't make sense to them, or areas they think I can improve. This gives me a basis on which I can easily enhance my writing.


Feedback Out

I have very much enjoyed reading other's stories and leaving feedback as well. I use the same format most of the times I leave feedback, pointing out a lot of good aspects and then some areas I thought could improve. Reading others has given me a lot of inspiration in my own stories. So many of my classmates are very talented writers!


Blog Comments

My favorite comments to give are based on people's introductions! I love getting to know people finding similarities between us. Overall, I am very happy with how my introduction post and blog in general gives people a way to know a bit about me and comment. 


Looking Forward

To make feedback more useful, both for me and my classmates, I think it would useful to see more specific comments. Some are vague and leave me not knowing which direction to take my writing, and I know some comments I have left could be more specific as well. That is something I will continue to work on to enhance other's writing the best I can




I chose this image because it is short and straight to the point about good feedback components. I also liked the way this infographic was put together.

Reading Notes: English Fairy Tales, Part A

 The Old Woman and Her Pig When I read this story, it seemed as if this was written to be more of a riddle than a story. The way the story flowed and the sentences were structured was a bit unusual compared to most stories. However, I really enjoyed reading it because it seemed like something I might have heard in my childhood.  The story began with introducing an old woman. She lived in a little house and she noticed one day that it was dirty and needed to be swept. So, she decided to clean the house and while she was sweeping, she came across a crooked sixpence. After discovering the pen, she decided she wanted to use it, however, she had no animals to put in the pen. To solve this dilemma, she went into town and bought a piglet. On her way back from the market with her piglet, the piglet was hesitant and would not go over a stile on the ground. So, in order to fix the problem she goes and finds a dog and asks the dog to bite at the pig so the pig would go over the stile. Af...

Week 8 Reading and Writing

Looking Back  Previewing my past blogs and website, I am very pleased with how everything is turning out. I have gotten to read a lot of interesting stories, and focus my notes on my main interests. I seem to have a theme of animals, especially elephants, that I acquired through my different posts. One of my favorite readings would have to be 'Why the Elephant has Small Eyes' or 'The Bush Cow and the Elephant'. I especially enjoy reading, and recreating stories, to fit my own unique narrative.  Looking Forward Moving forward, I am excited to read more mythology/folklore stories and build on my website. I feel like this class has helped improve my creativity and I hope to keep challenging myself to become a better writer in this course.  [Blogging. Image Information. ]
