Reflection to Week 11

I really liked the "Reading Photographs" activity that we did last week. The photos that I brought in didn't really work for the activity, but I found a picture on my camera that I had taken over the summer that worked perfectly. I was able to come up with good answers to the analysis questions based on the images in the photo, and because I have actually had the experience that I was depicting, it made it easy to answer the questions such as what are the people doing and how are the people feeling at the moment that the photo was taken. It was an interesting assignment, and I learned a lot from it.

I also learned a lot from the writing analysis on the student writing sample.  My answers and analysis were a little skewed because the writing sample had been edited by the teacher and then corrected by the student.  I did not know that we would be doing this kind of analysis, otherwise I would have asked my teacher for a first draft copy of my student's work.
