difference between blog 3 and email etiquette essay

In my blog number 3 I wrote about how I would write to one of my friends or familly members about one of my teachers giveing me a bad grade and what i would do about it to get my grade up to where i wanted it to be. my class had to write a logical, fluint and corect email to describe how unpleased we were with our grade in the class. i decided to write to my uncle clouse who lives in germany. i told him all about how my techer was completely unfair in the way she gave me the grades that i did not deserve. i talked about the amount and quality of the work that i did and how other people in class did work that was much simplier than mine and got a better grade than myself. i said told my uncle that i would go in the next day to talk to my teacher about the unfair grades and if she could take a second look at the work i did and if she agreed thati had done a better job than the grade percieved then maybe she would change it for me. if she didnt agree with me and felt that my paper was lacking and did indeed deserve the grade that she gave me then i would please request that she give me some extra credit assigments so i could bring my grade up to where i wanted it to be.
in the email etiquitte assignment we had to create a fictional and fluent email that effectively described our problem with the grades we recieved and ask if our teacher could raise our grades. our entire class had to set an appointment in the writing lab before we could turn in our final draft of this assignment. the main problem that i had with this assigment was i needed to find a way to make it much longer than what i had first written it out to be. my appointment to meet a tutor in the writing center was at 4 oclock. i went in and sat with my tutor and was pleasently suprised at how easily we made my short paper into a well rounded and writen assigment. he worked litteraly sentence by sentence with me to make the paper the best it could be. by the time me and my tutor were finished i had an entire page full of notes and things i should insert to my paper. i will be going back their in the future for sure
