reflecting on class experience

in class today the basic descussion was about our papers on an unfair assignment that we recieved on either multiple assigments or on a biger assigment like a test or project and we had to write to a friend or family member about how unfair it was and how we were going to try and fix it. we got together in groups of 3 or 4 and we all brainstormed about how we could write the best paper we could. we talked about who we would write to, some things we would say to the person we were writing to, and how we would ask to resolve our bad grade problem. i said to the group that i didnt want to write to a personal friend because everyone else would be doing that and i wanted my paper to be different than everyone elses so i decided to write to my uncle clouse who lives in germany. i told him what exactly happened with my bad grade and how unfair i thought it was and that i was going to go to my teacher in the near future to tell her what i thought and ask that she either change my grade or give me some extra credit assigments so i could raise my grade to a passing average. in the next class we had we had to get back into some groups with our first draft finished and come up with a question that we had on our paper and we had to solve that question to enhance our paper. my question was how can i make my paper longer. and in my group we disscussed many ways we could do that and then we would help the next person in my group in the same manner.
