For the Portfolio

If you would like to share anything for your portfolio, please put it here. For example, you could post a paragraph on your most challenging assignment. Or, if you like, you can tell us about the assignment you are proudest of and why.

If you share here, the class (and teacher) can help you with the details and make sure you have a better result.

I'd also be interested in your comments on your best sentences (taken from your six pieces chosen for the portfolio). Remember that sentences could be good for a number of reasons: because of their structure; because of good use of vocabulary; because it has a wonderful, poetic rhythm . . .

Good luck. I'm here to help you! Oh, and wasn't that collaborative story a lot of fun? Definitely I should do that one again.
