Hi my name is malina and this is my writing standards portfolio!  Before I came into the menemac program I never used to enjoy writing or had no clue how to write decent essays. But now, I learned many new skills that help writing essays more  easy for me! This semester I learned many different things that I never knew before such as chunky paragraphs which is used to help fine tune in my writing skills. The 6 traits helped me a lot by organizing my essays more! An example of essays that the 6 traits helped me with where my roots and recipes and KC3 essay. I reached all my goals this semester by giving my 100% on each of my tasks even though some were challenging but after a while it got easier.In my portfolio you will get to read my essays and what I've learned this wonderful semester!
