Self-Assessment
I have grown as a reader over the past 7th grade school year, my skills in reading has improved, and I am much better at comprehending the plot of novels I read. I have also grown as a thinker, and learned many good qualities about myself while reading. My goal for 8th grade, is to start reading more thicker novels, that have a more difficult understanding to them. I also want to improve my focus when reading, because I often have to read over pages because I will think about other things.
