  • Self Assessment

    I have grown as a reader this year by reading more books on my own time and not only just in school. I have also grown by paying more attention and asking questions when needed. Also, i have been making more inferences on my own first and always ask an opinion of a friend if i don't feel that something is right. I have grown as a thinker by just being able to do more things on my own than always relying on someone else. Next year, I would like to read a lot more and pay closer attention.
