Journal (4)

This week and after I finished the midterm exams I decided to work on the fourth journal. I have many things to do instead of working with my language learning plan. The projects are two and I haven’t finished them so I most finished them in this week. I feel frustrated after the math exam because I didn’t do well on it, so I was a little bet lazy and I haven’t work a lot on my language learning plan.

I worked on this website http://www.monash.edu.au/lls/llonline/writing/general/essay/index.xml which has a lot of thing. There are essay topics, essay plans, taking notes, analyzing, summary and many different things that are related to the writhing skills. I like this site very much because I can learn the foundation of the writing skills and the most important points that I have thinking of if I write an Academic essay. The most important section that I found is Academic writing section. I know what Academic writing is and I sow the differences between it and the general writing. After that I choose a simple topic about teaching in my life. I wrote about it then I gave it to my sister to chick it to me. I found that I’m improving now because I usually doing writing practice. More details her is my problem because when I write any essay I think that I’m giving details but I’m not so I have to work more with this point and I must be careful and being more specific.

Another thing that I was very happy with is that this week we went to Marina Mall with my teacher and my classmates because we have a project about toys so we went there to choose the toys. Why I’m happy?! I was very comfortable with the sellers when I was speaking with them. Also, we had a nice discussion with the lecturer in Early Learning Center. He was talking with us about the toys and this center. So I had a very important speaking practice without any thinking of what we will go to do.
