Argument Writing

Content

Description:

For this assignment, I was asked to write an argumentative C.L.E.A.R paragraph on one of two questions pertaining to the novel "Lord Of The Flies" by William Golding. The question I chose to answer was what the Beast really was. This was a part of my first semester English final.

Reflection

In this assignment I had my up's and down's. One thing I that improved on was my writing skills. I learned how to fully utilize the CLEAR format to write a factual, informative, and interesting paragraph or essay. In this assignment, I fine tuned my skills as a writer and reader. I also improved my discovering skills by searching for textual evidence in a book to support my claim.

One thing I wasn't so great at was my time management skills. I procrastinated on this project and had to race through it and finish it before the class ended, which probably lead to some minor but avoidable mistakes in my writing. I also did not excel in my productivity during the preparation time before this assignment. I was given the information for this assignment a few days before it took place, and I had the opportunity to practice this assignment and fine tune it. But I instead spent those days relaxing and doing other less important things, while I should have been studying for this upcoming task.

I both excelled and struggled in this assignment and I hope to advance in my more mediocre skills for the next upcoming assignment in this class.
