This essay is intended to self-reflect on my writing. Writing the essay will help me point out my strengths, weaknesses, and give my personal opinion as to where I am in my writing. Also, I will have examined a peers essay and point out what I have noticed that they have done with their essay.

Pre-Writing/Invention Process The pre-writing/invention process I used for this essay was brainstorming. Brainstorming proved to be effective for the essay. This prewriting/invention process was effective because I found it quite easy to help me put all of my ideas and information I had gathered together and then eliminate which I wanted and did not want.

I learned from reading her essay that Childhood Obesity is caused by many different factors. I must say that, I must use different sources in order to justify my research. My peers review made me think that I need to add different sources, meaning more than one, in my own essay.
Revising Process I revised my essay after each paragraph; I then make any corrections that I may think necessary. And at the end I then

The Importance Of Writing Assignment

skated by without doing hardly any writing assignments. I would tell the teacher that I had already turned it in, and they would just say “ok”. The few times I actually did my writing assignments, I didn’t try at all. If each paragraph was required to be ten sentences long, I would make them about five. I would do just enough to pass the assignment but not enough to get a good grade. When I got to middle school, I started to consistently do my writing assignments, and with better work ethic. My middle…

I know that I am handing this assignment around a week later from when it was supposed to be due but there were circumstances for why it had to be that way.

My Writing Assignment

Over the last three quarters, we have been given many writing assignments, many of which were essays. At the beginning, my essays were awful.

My essays began to get better because of this and they all had decent attention getters, theses, and conclusions, but I still jumped from topic to topic and had terrible sentence structure.

I now know that writing is not simply a task assigned or a thing that is to be read later. Every time myself or anyone writes they are contributing to an academic conversation and possibly influencing others opinions. The essays in this portfolio…
