The first strength that my instructor pointed out was the introduction, the introduction worked because it grabbed attention of the reader by asking them questions that would be answered throughout the paper. The introduction also gave a small idea of what the paper was about. The second strength that my instructor noted was the use of the single reference of the United States Constitution, by using a strong reference it strengthened the argument of the paper. The third strength was the use of examples

Have you ever had a paper scrutinized for using the first person or not being objective? Chances are that you have. We have all had a teacher in the past that has told us that we have to write objectively. I have always wondered why this has been the rule we have had drilled into our heads when it comes to writing a paper. This is more than something that we have been told not to do we have been marked down points for doing so. It is impossible to write without having yourself in the writing. In
Main idea/thesis (Keeana) Following multiple readings of the essay, it became apparent to us that the thesis was not directly stated in the text, and therefore we had to conclude that it was implicit. Due to our notes on the annotation term “synthesize”, we took the three points of importance the author was trying to express, which are: Pain is never absent in the world of ballet.

Her purpose for writing this article was that internet was not going anymore and parents should sit down with their children to talk to them about online behavior.

While starting the process of writing the essay I found that it was more effective to begin writing on the body paragraphs
Reflection My experience in writing this essay was an extremely difficult one. I thought that picking a topic very dear to me would make the process of writing easier but it actually seems to be making things a bit more complicated. Rather than being okay with having a bad first draft and just getting my ideas out on paper, I spent of lot time editing my thoughts before they could even make it into text.

Writing requires an immense amount effort to put words on the page and is almost always homework.
