Hmm....

Sooo...Everyone is pretty much finishing up on their blogs and comments, and expressing their opinions on Mrs. Watson's class as a sort of "Last Post". So I thought, why not? I might as well write my own little review of the class also.
Im not going to lie, this class was most definitely a struggle for me. It had its ups (watching people make fools of themselves trying to act out a scene in the plays we read) and its downs (the number on the top of most of my quizzes), but overall I really liked how the class worked out. I've never been in a class where the students actually teach each other for the WHOLE semester, but I thought it was a very original idea.I think having to plan out our own assignments really made us think deeper into the meaning and themes behind what we were reading, which is something every literature class should aim to do. For the most part, I enjoyed everything we did in class. Unfortunately, I dont have Mrs. Watson for English 242 next semester, but to all of you who do....have fun!!! :)

  1. I agree! This class was really different from everything I've ever been used to. I am really thankful that there are teachers who really explore different learning techniques such as those that Mrs. Watson used this semester. I also think that this class was pretty tough ( quizzes!), but in the end, I really enjoyed coming to class and making a fool out of myself acting out scenes from plays! (:
