In a well-developed response, explain what you enjoyed most about the class, identify the project or assignment you found most engaging, and discuss which aspect of the course you connected with the most (such as poetry, fiction, writing, or discussion). Finally, reflect on one area where you feel you need additional support or improvement as we move into the spring semester.
Prompt Response: Something I enjoyed about this class is the poems and the short stories we read, They were very interesting and mind pulling and brought me to engage in the class conversation.

A topic that I feel I need more help in is critical thinking questions. Summary: Today in class we presented our final project. Reflection: Today in class I presented my final project.
