currently working on my english essay. again , not rlly sure what im doing ! thats fine tho. i dont think shes gonna grade it harshly, because the way weve been doing the essay is weird. we finsih reading othello, do some afterwords activity to understand it better i guess. then we work on the introduction for the essay - which was like its own miny lesson ?? it took two days to finish it. the next day, we looked at body paragraphs. she gave us a paper with an upsidedown trian - am i even remembering this right????
actually, i think the upside down triangle was for the introduction. it did take two days to do the introduction, but we mainly used it to go over thesis statements. the next day she wasnt there and we had to turn in our theses (???) to the student aide ...
anyway, she gave us notes for body paragraphs and was like "alright, we'll do this tomorrow." and again, she was not there. that was friday. the upcoming week/end was spring break, so two people i know were talking about how she was grading our essays. i know a 'good' student should finish the essay, but there's a loophole in the system. she never mentioned having to work on the conclusion. again, its spring break.
"how is she gonna grade this?"
"she might forget"
"nah, i talked about this with her yesterday. she mentioned that she'll be grading based off of completion."
idk how much i trust that statement bc she really does NOT seem to be the type of person to do that. but its just kinda silly i suppose LOL i dont know if we'll be working on completing the essay or if shes hoping (and praying, manifesting) that we finish the essay. honestly i dont think she has high hopes for us. for an honors class, we're pretty lazy students. i know i am. no way am i touching the conclusion
conclusions are harder for me to do, too. analyzing quotes is fine but i struggle trying to put what i wanna say into words. like, its there i know what im trying to say but i just find it hard to commit and put it in coherent words
im hungry
