CHALLENGES DURING THE SEMESTER
Our challenges during the semester were:
Understand all the topics that we were going to develop because they were new for us. Another challenge that we face in this semester was to put in practice all the things that we had learnt in class. For example, in each journal that we wrote, we had to apply the composition rules that we had seen in class.
We consider that the most difficult part of this subject was to indentify the different kind of mistakes that we do when we are writing a paragraph or a sentence. Another challenge was that we had to record a video about a determined topic, it may soud easy but we are not accostumed to be in front of a camera, so it took us a while to try to record that video. As a conclusion we could say that this subject is not too difficult but we have to pay attention in class and try to do all the practices in order to have a good grade and pass this subject.
WHAT DID WE LEARN ABOUT THIS VIDEO
In this video we learned important information about sentence length and structure. We learned what a sentence length is. We learned that a sentence
structure refers to the physical nature of a sentence and how the elements of
that sentence are presented and Sentence length
refers to the number of words
in a sentence.
We learned how to fix this kind of sentence. Also we learned that if you find that your sentence begins with one
subject-verb-object, and finishes with another subject-verb-object, you should
probably divide it into two sentences.

JOURNALS
Brian´s Journals:
I have written many
assessments in life; however, writing the journals were such a nice experience.
The assigned us some topics which were very interesting to write about, and the
first topic I had to write about was: How was my first English Composition 1
class. Although I knew how was my first experience, I felt very nervous because
I did not know if
I had done it as it was supposed that it had to be. When the teacher gave our journals back, I noticed
that I had been making some terrible mistakes, but it was time to change
them.
I improved my writing in the
following journals, and I felt very happy because of that. However, I knew that
I had to imporve more and continue searching for important information to get
more knowledge about Composition rules.
Christian´s Journals :
When I wrote this journal, I felt so excited because I like to talk
about Technology. In this journal, I wrote about how the influence of
technology is. Also, I wanted to express the use, the influence, and the
importance of Technology. I know that Students use Technology in order to look
a topic, a meaning, or information. Because of that, Techonology is such as an
important tool nowadays.
Marvin´s Journals:

This was my
first time that I wrote a journal. At the beginning I didn’t know what a journal
is or how to write it. This was a good experience because we learn many rules
that we didn’t know before. Whe I wrote
about how people can learn English was
so easy because it´s something that we are doing right now. I didn’t take me
too much time in thinking what I was going to write it was easy to explain. The
journal about our first English composition class was easy to write too. We wrote
about how was our first English composition class and for me was easy because
we learned new things from the first day. The last one that is about the second
test we had was kind of difficult but easy at the same time. I didn’t like to
write this journal because I knew that I was failed in this test. I got confuse
in some parts but at the end I got a good grade in this journal.
