Reflection #12

This week was an awesome week. In class last Monday, I saw that many of my classmates did their homework. I did not expect them to do theirs because they don't usually do their homework. But, from what I saw that day, I kind of knew that they are respecting the class. The homework and class assignments that they are not doing, they might have done them but did not want to share it to the whole class. This is what's driving me nuts. I want to directly tell them to share their works but I don't want to hurt their feelings. I have seen students who would cry in class for it is her/his part to speak so I didn't want to do the same with my classmates. I just felt sorry for them. But, as I was saying, they did their homework for the day. I was surprised that majority of the class read out loud. I want them to continue doing their assignments and taking parts in class discussions. I know it is hard to take part and speak up in front of a group of people. Though, we just have to.

For reading, I just finished reading the assigned pages from last class and whosh, many new things. As I was reading the book, Writing Down the Bones, I learned new things. I now know that writing can be done with partners. Also, writing session can last 'till 3 PM. When I saw a line in the book that said this, I was surprised. I didn't know that writing session could take this much time. Other than this, I also found out that what our homework on page 133 is to write 10 short poems. Ten? This is too much for me. Even if this is too much for me, I will have to try to finish them before class Thursday. This is my goal for next week.
