Mission Statement?

I see that I am again the last person to blog. I thought that we were supposed to bring in a draft, not post one up. I should've looked at the blog earlier. Shame on me.

My personal goals set for the AP English 11 class are:

- Participate in everything. In the past, I usually tended to keep things to myself and not express my opinions in different conflicts. I hope to express my thoughts without hesitation for all topics.

- Work toward improving my works. I want to develop my skills in proofreading, improving all of my works.

- Do the best in all that I do. As Mrs. Fletcher brought up in class, there are many times when I would procrastinate and receive an "A" or a "B" but these works weren't done to the best of my ability. I hope to put out all of my efforts on every piece of work that I do this year. Although I may not always get the score that I wanted or thought I deserved, I will know that I gave all that I could and won't have any regrets.

- Not only work myself toward success but help my fellow classmates as well. Use constructive criticism to help one another.


Everyone's personal goals in the class should add up to a class mission statement that I believe should comprise of:

- Showing support in everything. People have different views and opinions on different pieces of writing. Everybody should acknowledge this and give constuctive criticism to help one another improve.

- Participating in all class discussions. If Mrs. Fletcher was the only person giving her ideas on a certain event, it wouldn't be as effective as when the whole class gives their point of view.

- Confidence in everything. Everybody has a reason to be proud of their work. If the piece of writing was given all the effort of the person, it is probably good, have confidence.

- Responsibility. Everyone in the class should take responsibility for everything that they do. There shouldn't be any excuses to cover up for a mistake.


These are the points that I believe should be included in our class mission statement.
Let's follow our mission statement and personal goals and have a successful year!!!
