1. I thought that my citations and that my presentation among other things were the best parts of my paper.
2. An area I definitely can improve on is Organization and my Conclusions. I always think of conclusions as something that is just added on to the end of papers but I really think that conclusions can be the most important part of a paper because they help conclude all the points youve made throughout the story.
3. A writing strategy I would use the next time I wrote for any class would be to focus on my topic sentences and concluding paragraphs because those are the backbones of a paper and they are essential for a good paper.
4. I will take more steps to gather better evidence and prewrite more effectively so when it is time to write the paper it is easier for me to finish. I will also use turnitin website more often because it is a great resource to make sure annotations and citations are done correctly. I will reread my papers multiple times to make sure there are no grammar or spelling mistakes.
5. Work hard during the school year and relax once you finish the job.

1.I had very good organization in my writing. I also had really good evidence I found lots of good quotes. The overall presentation of my CTW paper was also very good.

2.The main area I could improve in was the conventions I needed to proof read my paper better and remove more of the linking verbs. Also I could improve on my style so I could of had a better sentence variety and better word choice. My conclusion was not that good either.

3.I will use the strategy of proof reading and just use different sentence strategy to improve my writing. I may also choose a different strategy for my topic sentence.

4.I will look over my paper more and have someone else look over my paper so it sounds better. I will also find better vocabulary words to make my paper stronger.

5.To read over your paper more and make sure ever thing is good and choose better vocab.

1. I think my best part in my CTW paper was my explanations and evidences to solve my paper's issue. I also think my quotes were really well put together to wrap that paragraph up.

2. The main area I could have improved my paper in was to remove the linking verbs, because I had many and I probably could have removed more to make my paper more "cleaner". Meaning that it's more well put together by organization.

3. A strategy next year I will probably use will be re-reading my paper many times to make sure it's put in the right order and the best it can be.

4. I can have my teacher read over it and have them help me fix up some issues in my paper. I can also have my parents to read over the paper to help me with grammatical and other issues as well.

5. I would say to work the best I can, and make sure it's all well put together.
