Writing Center Experience/ Reading Log


           This semester, I visited the writing center! I really enjoyed my visit and am considering applying to work in the writing center sometime over the next few years while I attend Episcopal. At the writing center, Kiddie assisted me in improving my literary analysis. She gave me specific ideas of how to improve my writing. Also, when she was helping me she was very nice about how she presented the material I needed to improve or correct.
            Kiddie taught and reminded me of a few important things about writing. First, she taught me that when writing a paper, I should not change the point of view in which I am writing in. In my literary analysis, I had written in multiple different points of views but was able to correct that. Also, Kiddie reminded me not to change tenses when writing. Lastly, Kiddie stressed the importance of avoiding filler words! Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed my visit at the writing center.

What would happen in a world where it was the child's choice to go to school? Would you go to school?


           In a world where going to school was optional, many children would probably choose not to attend school. Personally, I feel that this would cause many problems for our society, especially in America. If people would choose not to go to school, then there would be a decrease in the number of people that would be educated. With less educated people available, fewer jobs would be able to be performed. This would probably have a dramatic, negative effect on the economy.
            If the option was presented to me, I would choose to attend school. Receiving an education is very important, especially when applying for a job. Also, being educated would be even more significant in a time when fewer people received an education. Also, even if I want not to attend school, my parents would still make me go. My parents have always emphasized the importance of learning and going to school.
