Sixteen-year-old Joy took the Level 1 co-op class this year. The conclusion from her portfolio is a model example of a Level 1 Topic Sentence/Topic Clincher technique.
Update: She also clinched the title for this post.
Writing Foundations this year greatly improved my knowledge of grammar rules and helped me overcome some of my fears. Because the class provided a memorable way to learn grammar rules, I know so much more than I did when I started. The methods Miss Brekke used helped me to better understand the rules and why they are necessary. Therefore, I will always remember how to write an essay because of the fun example called the “essay burger.” In addition, my greatest challenge in this class was overcoming my fear of timed essays. It took a fair amount of work, but the things I have learned are worth it. In conclusion, Writing Foundations was an excellent way to invest my time because I learned many things about grammar, and I faced my greatest fear.
