In enriched English 10 this quarter I did average in the class. I learned that hard work and determination can help you achieve your goals. Also, I learned to strive for exellence, not for perfection. So far in this class I have managed to improve my writing skills. Also, I have learned to be more responsible with my homework. Unfortunately, I am still struggling to adjust to the curriculum and the tough grading. I am also struggling with procrastination. I leave assignment to the last minute and forget to turn them in. The class environment is very good for focusing on what we need to do in class. There are words of encouragement all over the room, which help me stay on task. Also, the desk angles are put so that we can have class discussions. This makes it easier to hear everyone and to see people when they are speaking. What I can do to further the learning community in our classroom is to help others when they need it.
For quarter two, I intend to do much better. One goal for the class is to get an A this quarter. Also, I want to be less of a procrastinator and be ahead of the homework that is due. This will allow me to better understand what we are learning in class and I will get more time on my essays. I also want to learn how to improve my essay writing and my reading skills. I will try to improve by putting my goals into action and putting more effort into the class. I think that using these goals will help me be more successful in enriched English this quarter. Also, I believe that these goals can help others by example. I plan on doing much better second quarter compared to first quarter.

Kenzie!!
I loved your Ms. Froehlich quote to strive for excellence not perfection! I also am having slight procrastination problems. I think that facebook and aim maybe have something to do with it :). But serioulsy, we're teenage girls who need to socialize and nobody likes being kept "out of the loop" on the latest gossip. jk.
I also want to spend more time working on my essays because I also feel I can improve in this area.
I completely understand the procrastination thing, especially when it comes to blogging and shinanigans like that! I also like the angled desks because we can see everyone in the class room and it make that classroom look different than all the others.
I have loved your positive attitude during Q1! You have truly contributed to the positive class atmosphere. Be sure to find me during lab days so that I can help you achieve your goals for Q2 writing!
