Thanksgiving Extra credit

I feel that the most important and helpful thing I have learned in English so far would have to be the 5 part paragraph. Rewriting our To Kill a Mockingbird paper showed me how many different skills you have to master to be successful with this type if writing. I had no idea what embedding your quotes was and I had a hard time with that but after talking to you about it, I now understand. Also when I write papers for school I tend to be very wordy and write a little too much. When you are doing the 5 part paragraph you can't do that. You just need to get your point across plain and simple. I know that mastering how to write these will help me and all your other students to be better at writing because that is a strict format we must follow, but once we have less restrictions we will have masterpieces of writing. This is so important because writing is an everyday skill. Just like reading is. The better you are at it, the easier life will be. Who wants to be hire someone who can't write well. Having good writing skills is such a necessity and I thank you for helping us grow in that area of education.
