Quest English Eight Reflection

          Over the past year I have grown in many ways. I have learned to reflect on a short story or essay more effectively than before. We have read many different short stories like how to tell a war story, the stranger, and many others that have had different morals and messages that we uncovered using our blogs and other writing assignments. I learned to think about a story as I'm reading it and look for foreshadowing and other writing strategies. I have always enjoyed reading, but the skills I learned this year have made it more interesting.
