1) I did alright on this theme as compared to the other themes we have had. I thought I did better than my grade but because I did not follow all of the directions my grade is deserved. I was able to show a strong connection of colors to racial beliefs. I was able to improve my transitions from paragraph to paragraph.
2) I am starting to get better and better on my transitions. I was able to make each paragraph flow into each other. I used quotes that I found in the novel that showed very strong connections to what was looked upon on the theme. The only problem that I had was not following TICAP instructions.
3) I can improve on using TICAP. I need to gain a better knowledge for how to use TICAP. I can also spend a lot more time and get more people to edit my paper.

Themes #3 Reflection
1) I did alright on the theme. I could have done better but poems without rhyming are not a strong point of mine. I was hoping that the grade could have been better but the theme reader and and Mr. Gabriele know what areas I did wrong in and what I need to improve. My grade reflects the work I put in so considering it wasn't my best work it didn't deserve the best grade. I did well on not rhyming any of the lines and was able to complete more than 15 lines.
2) I can become better on my punctuation and know where and when to use certain punctuation marks. I can also learn how to organize my poems a lot better and show more imagery. I can also find more of useful words to show imagery and tone of my papers.
3) I can practice writing more poems and going over my work until it is the best it can be. I should also make sure I have other people read it multiple times before handing it in to make sure it is at its best.

Theme #2 Reflection
1) I did an alright job in which I could have done a lot better on had I focused a little more on getting help on some things I had trouble with. I did deserve the grade I got because of how many opportunities I was presented with but did fail to act upon them. Since I didn't know Nick personally I wasn't able to get everything how I wanted but I tried to put info that would be very true in Nick's case.
2) I am not very good at doing the resumes and cover letters being that I never really have to use them so I think by practicing more and more with them I will get a better understanding of what a great cover letter and resume would look like.
3) I can improve in a lot of areas and I will take what was written on my paper and try to apply it to the next time I have an assignment like this. I will try and do more and more drafts of the themes I do to make sure that when I do hand it in it will be as good as it can.

Theme #1 Reflection
1) On theme #1 I did a good job I just handed it in late. I feel I deserve the grade I got because of me turning it late but had it been on time I would definitely be fine with the score I got. I took the revisions and actually used them in my paper. I saw things that I had messed up on and realized why they did not work out how they were supposed and I helped use them to do better on the new copy.
2) Now that I was given a chance to take what the theme reader and Mr. Gabriele wrote down for me to do I can get a better view of what is needed to make a paper 100% worthy. I need to focus on tying my paper together from beginning to end.
3) Next time I will make sure it not only gets handed in on time but that I check over it and reread it multiple times to make sure that everything flows. It was a hard topic to write about since it was someone I lost but next time I will have a couple read it and edit it before I hand it in.
