Second quarter reflections

Of the books that I have read this quarter my favorite has been Jack the Ripper written by Patricia Cornwell, the reason that this is my favorite book is because while you read it the slightest noise will make you fly to your feet and be on end, it was hard to stop reading until I could not lift my eyelids then when you finally put the book down there was so much to think about. I would get tired of thinking, wanting to tell my sister about it but I also did not want to walk through the Erie darkness to her room contemplating what was there in the dark waiting for me even though subconsciencely I knew it was nothing.

One thing that I believe that I improved on in quarter two in langue arts was the vocab quizzes that we take almost every week on friday. Last quarter I was getting a lot of twos on my quizzes which was not so good, then second quarter came and I guess I got better at remembering the words probably because of how much coffee I drink, I started getting more threes and fours even though I think I did a bit mediocre on my most recent and last test of the quarter.

Something that I think that I improved on this quarter was using the Tiqa format. I did not really use it in the beginning of the school year and first quarter and then, quarter two I started using it and my writing got a little bit better and everything was a lot more organized and clean and much easier to read.
