 Today we learned about the 5 steps of the writing process. They are pretty simple: 

1) Prewriting: Getting your thoughts down onto paper.

2) Drafting: Putting your ideas and thoughts together.

3) Revising: Rewriting or rearranging sentences to make sense. 

4) Editing: Correcting grammar and punctuation.

5) Presenting: Sharing your work. 

Those are the five steps of the writing process. I found them very easy to understand and felt like I already understood the steps before the lesson. One new thing that I learned was how to create a cluster graph to format and structure your writing and body paragraphs. I thought this was very helpful and will help me a lot in the future. My day today was good, school was the usual and I had a baseball game after school that we won. I do have a lot of homework and I am writing this at 11:46 at night.

This can lead to depression and many other bad things such as hurting relationships. That is why that conversation changed me.  Summary:  In today's class we worked on an assignment over the Lesson 7 vocabulary words. We defined the words, wrote some synonyms and antonyms, as well as filled in sentences using the vocab words.  Reflection: I enjoyed this class because it was fairly simple so I was able to finish quickly. Because I finished early I was able to do make-up work with the remaining time.

Which time do you perfer the most and why, Daylight Savings Time or Standard Time?

  Prompt Response:  I prefer Daylight Savings Time. This is because it symbolizes that summer is getting closer, which is exciting. I also enjoy having a change in my routine that makes life a little more interesting for a little bit. I also enjoy having more daylight that lasts for longer. That is why I prefer Daylight Savings Time over Standard Time.  Summary: Today was a virtual day, so I worked on the NEWSELA assignment on Daylight Savings Time.  Reflection:  I enjoyed reading the article and learning about the reason and history behind Daylight Savings Time. I also thought that the questions weren't that difficult, but they still offered a challenge.
