Self Check:
1. I believe that I did answer the promt. My essay was about Price's use of language and how it indicated her views of American culture.
2. I feel that my thesis is pretty straight forward and obvious. I think it is strong, and I am content with it.
3. My essay is focused on a central theme, and I do believe that my paragraphs build on top of each other.
4. In my essay, I did cover 1-2 things fully; but I admit that in the end I did throw in other things that I thought I should cover. Oops!
5. I do not believe that I vaguely explained my analysis. I included several quotes and textual details to support my ideas.
Reflection:
1. What went well? I finished my essay! :) Also, I was able to provide and support several different quotes from the prompt.
2. While writing, I felt exremely rushed, so I don't think I did as well as I could have. I didn't feel like I could afford the time to annotate so much, and I started writing my essay right away.
3. If I had more time to write the essay, I would annotate more, and organize the essay better. I would probably remove some of the half-baked sentences that I used for the sake of covering more ideas.
4. Well, I didn't really plan the organization of my essay. I had certain ideas with supportive details, and I ran with them to make paragraphs. I made changes to the ones that I thought were unnecessary.
5. While writitng and trying to suppport my ideas, I think I fully realized Price's views on American culture, and how money truly affects it.
6. For the next timed write, I need to organize my essay better!
