I thought that class had a great discussion today. I felt that brainstorming was very helpful to myself and the class for preparing for our next essay on Angela Whitiger. This is going to be a fun paper write.

I think that actually brainstorming as a class helps us all get ideas to integrate into our essay. This last essay seems to be interesting so far, especially because angela whitikers story relates to my family story.

I think its funny how the class does come up with some great ideas but whatever we don't come up with always gets brought up by you. Today was very helpful and I found that taking pictures of the notes instead of writing them saves you much time and effort.

Today's class discussion really helped me figure out the outline of this next essay. The topic of this paper is interesting and hopefully fun to write about.

I liked having the lab days in class because it helps that when we are working on out rough drafts that you are there to help us when we have questions versus us at home just having to do it ourselves. I like it this way.
