Epilogue - May 6

As we wrap up our month of Personal Portfolio Writing reflect on the writing that you have done. What have you learned about yourself? What are some things in your life that you wish to improve on? How has this assignment helped with your own writing? How has it helped you to discover yourself. If you could describe yourself in 3 words after reading this blog what would they be? In 400 words or more tell me what you have gained from this experience (not only with this assignment but let's include all of Creative Writing this semester). (I have gained nothing is not an acceptable response.) Dig deep inside yourself and your writing and tell the world what you really want them to know about you.

Valuable Lessons - May 2

Mistakes in life are inevitable. Everyone makes them and the most important thing is that you learn from those mistakes. Think about all the lessons that you have learned over your (very short) lifetime. They could be lessons you learned because you made a mistake or got into trouble. Maybe they were lessons taught to you by your parents, teachers, or friends. Make a list of the ten most valuable lessons you’ve every learned. Write a sentence explaining each why each lesson was valuable to you. Consider things like learning to multiply, but also think about more abstract lessons of wisdom and experience that you have learned over the years.

Here is my list of lessons, maybe they will help you think of your own:  http://laneseslagle.blogspot.com/2013/05/valuable-lessons-may-2.html
