This week in class, we worked on learning new vocabulary. The hardest part for me was using those new words to write my own story. It just felt a bit challenging, and honestly, I’m not even sure why. To help myself out, I read the three example stories we were given, and that made things a little clearer. I realized that reading stories really does help when you’re trying to learn how to use new words. Next time, I’ll try to push myself to include more vocabulary in my writing. What I’ve learned isn’t just for class. I know I can use these skills in everyday life, especially at school.
