At first, I didn’t really know how to start the writing my deceleration. So, I read the student declaration example that was posted on Moddle and the declaration of independence so I can have an idea of how to write my letter. Furthermore, I searched for break up letters on Google and read them to get some ideas. The biggest problem that I had was to make the letter sound persuasive and being able to imitate the examples, without exactly copying words to words, but have a little of my writing style in it. As a writer, my strengths is that I have lots of strong ideas to put into the writing. Also, I’m able to find major and minor ideas to put into the writing to make all the ideas connect. Moreover, I know how to organize my ideas so my writing would flow well and the readers wouldn’t get confused. However, I struggled a little bit with verb and nouns agreement, and using pronouns at the right place.
If I have a chance to do this writing again, I would change my list of grievances. In my opinion, I think my list is a little short and I need to add more ideas to be more persuasive. I think I need to be specific, so instead of using” you guys” I should have use ” teachers” and ” parents.” Also, I would check my punctuation and grammar more carefully before turning the writing in so I wouldn’t have points taken off because of very minor mistakes.
