Weekly review, Week 14

 How did the reading go for you this week? What struck you the most in this week's reading? Were there ideas you struggled with? 
   Readings this week were interesting as I continued reading The Big Sleep.

Where did you do your best writing this week — in this class? In another class?  Have you discovered some good strategies for helping yourself focus on writing for this class?
     My favorite writing this week was for my Theatre class as we wrote about our favorite actor and did some research on them.  I also had to take an exam in one of my History classes that entailed 5 short answers about a book we read for that.  I was happy with how I did on that as well.
   
Did you read something excellent written by someone else in the class? What made it stand out to you? 
     I read some interesting interpretations on the book we read in History as we have weekly discussions about our readings.

How are things going in your other classes? Are there any connections you are noticing between your other classes and stuff you are doing for this class?
     Struggling with my math class at the moment otherwise all are going well.

What are your plans and hopes for next week in this class? In your other classes?
     Starting smaller assignments early this week since I have an exam this Thursday.  I want to make sure I plan out enough time to complete everything and have study time.

Weekly Review Week 13

How did the reading go for you this week? What struck you the most in this week's reading? Were there ideas you struggled with?       Didn't read as much as I wanted to this week.  Work has been super busy so I will need to extend some of my scheduled reading this coming week in order to finish. Where did you do your best writing this week — in this class? In another class?  Have you discovered some good strategies for helping yourself focus on writing for this class?     My best writing this week was in my theatre class.  We had to write several pieces and discussion topics. Did you read something excellent written by someone else in the class? What made it stand out to you?       I read several posts from classmates this week and commented on several either for project planning or reading notes they took on books I am not reading for my project.  It's interesting to read about the other options people c...

Taking Stock Week 13

Planning to do the majority of my reading early in this week to leave more of a buffer at the end of the week.  With work taking up more than the usual amount of time this past week, I did not accomplish as much as I had planned.
