Class: Senior English 1 Teacher: Nancy Figueroa

Assignment Title: Q1 Social Issue Argumentative Essay

Student Writing Goal: My writing goal is to score a 100% on all assessments and score a “3” in the statement of focus
category. I want to stay on topic my entire paper and use enough argumentation evidence with no grammar mistakes.

What was the purpose of this writing assignment?

The purpose of this writing assignment was to teach me how to create my senior essay in a formal and
professional way. In another hand, I am going to college, it is good to have an essay and cover letter. I am
planning to study a lot to perfect my grammar. This resume will allow me to be prepared for college essays.
Whenever I grade and decide to get a good grade, I will be able to use this essay as a base and update it with
my education and grammar knowledge.

How did you perform in relation to the expectations of the writing rubric?
I think as if my essay did not have enough arguments. Although I was nervous to do it perfect, I know I could
have probably thought out my previous essays and resumes a bit more and tried to do it better, so I should
have included anything that might have helped me. For example, personal experience, some interviews, etc.
As far as grammar, I could have definitely proof-read my work a lot more. I also should have stayed focused
throughout my essay and made it more professional.

What aspect of this piece did you do well? (give example/quotes to support claims)
Honestly, I liked my essay, which is about sexism in business, make equal pay and equal opportunities for
women and girls in every aspect of life around the world. It explains a part of how sexism has been affecting
women in the business industry, paying them less than men, making them feel uncomfortable with sexual
assaults and sometimes with verbal violence since a long time ago. I believe my objective was very clear and
honest. I tried to share my personal opinion about the topic showing arguments and quotes.

Why have you/haven’t you chosen to revise this writing assignment?

I decided to review it because my essay needed to be cleaned up, fixed grammatically and organized.

What will you do better in your next writing assignment, and how will I do it?
I will try to improve my grammar and use correctly MLA Format. , I will take all writing assignments more
serious; as I know each essay assignment is practice to follow my progress as a writer. I will make sure that I
stay focused on the prompts on all of my essays and use textual evidence, real arguments, etc.; since,
everything needs to be supported with evidence.
To what degree of success did you achieve your previously stated goal(s)?
Well, my goal was to score a 100% on all assessments and I did not reach that goal with this essay. I scored a
90%. After check my grade, I caught a lot of grammar mistakes. My essay used a lot of first person in the
responsibilities and there were a few sentences. I’ve to recognize that I did not follow my teacher’s
expectations when she mentioned just to avoid work and a little more of responsibilities. I do not want to feel
lazy but is true. After re-reading my cover letter, I reflect to myself too much. I need to read every prompt
over and over again until I stay focused and agree on the subject. I am sure that next time I will do it much
better.
