During term two our focus was narrative and reflection writing. I have never liked writing especially at my old school. If you saw me at my old school, I would have been that student who would have normally sat in the back of the class with all of his unfinished work around him. I did have big problems with writing and I knew I was below standards in nearly all of my work.

In term one I wrote in books and my work was untidy and I had to keep handing my book work around to other students just to be reviewed. I found that the book work was a problem for me. My books were always scruffy because they were always handled by teachers and students. This was so frustrating and hard, as my work wasn't set out tidy and I didn't like buddy readers.

Now l work on chromebooks it has really helped me in writing, as my work is tidy and it has hardly any mistakes. My writing work can be reviewed by sharing to another user on a Chromebook. It is by far, the best learning experience I have ever had.

What hindered me was the fact that I was below standards and my  work was so untidy. I had a lot of punctuation mistakes which stopped me moving up in my writing.

I think I have improved because the Read & Write app lets you review and check your work to see if it is correct before you go to Miss Simeon. As a result by using my chromebook I have improved in my writing and other subjects. Miss Simeon can also check on my work and leave helpful comments. I think I have made progress compared to last year and term one this year.

I like writing now because you own my learning. The best thing about writing is that you can make a whole world in your mind and then write about it and Miss Simeon doesn’t stop you.

Because I constantly write every day for every subject on my chromebook, I now feel confident as an author. I do believe I will carry on learning in writing, and because of this belief, I will continue to make progress in writing.
