Final Portfolio

PORTFOLIO REFLECTION

For your final fiction portfolio, please write a 3-4 page reflection essay on your work so far this year in Advanced Fiction.  Comment on pieces you have written during Marking Period 3 and 4.  Include 5 polished pieces.

Self Reflection  Essay (Advanced Poetry): 

Reflective piece: 3-4 pages, double-spaced:

Write about how you’ve grown as a writer this year, what has been easy/hard for you, what areas you feel you need more work in; reflect on your progress as a writer, a reader, and as a student. 

Write about some of the stories you have chosen to include in your portfolio: Why did you include these pieces in your portfolio? How does the piece show your growth and development as a writer in a particular genre? What did you learn about yourself concerning writing from this assignment or project?

Discuss the writing process you used to create the work, where you got your ideas, what you learned about the form or genre of the work as you wrote and revised it, what you learned about yourself as a writer, etc. 

Discuss special projects and any reading that had an impact on you.
