Pre draft assignments
1 Topic = 18 Topics
This sheet was used to expand our thinking of one topic , so we can create multiple questions or topics to talk about that one topic. For an example one of my topics was my computer , one of the 18 topics that I talked about was my first experience with a computer , another topic about computers was talking about the history of computers. This sheet really helped me out narrow down the topic and choose the most interesting topic out of them. I used the Inform and explain and a bit of inquire and explore.

Five Minute Quick Write
We did quick writes of 8 topics of the 16 topics , this was so we can get our ideas down on the paper and to choose which one of them was more comfortable. This was one of our first writings of the actual piece .This warm up really helped me out because it got me thinking of ideas for my first draft.

Down Draft and Edits
I notice how unready it was , it wasn't really that well made compared to my final draft
Graphic Organizers
The proofreading and opening lines worksheets were the best organizers in my opinion. Mostly because it relied on my re reading my work and when I re-read my work I usually find mistakes or places that I can improve on. The opening lines worksheet helped me improve my introduction which at first was really weak. In my opinion the Sensory Images Graphic Organizer was the least useful mostly because of the type of writing I was doing. I was doing inform and explain and I couldn't really find a place where I could use the sensory images. I do think the worksheet would've been useful if I was doing a story type writing.
Feedback and Critique
No critique critique and the Scissors critique were the most useful in my opinion. The reason why I think the no critique was one of the best critiques is because you were able to see the work of others and see how you can incorporate some of their ideas into your writing. The scissors critique helped me decided how I wanted to set up my writing piece. I was confused at first as to how to introduce the question into the writing but after great critique from a peer they told me that I should compare Esports and sports a little bit and then talk about how equal they are. In my opinion I didn't find any of the critiques "least useful" because they all helped my writing in at least one way that really enhanced it and made it what it is now. One of the most useful critique was from Dr.P he helped me expand some of my ideas and made my writing a lot better. Someone else that really helped me was Jazmine who was able to give me an opinion from someone who had now knowledge of Esports.
Final Draft
I am proud of the result as I put a lot of effort and time into it. My most favorite part of this was the first sentence because it shows how much improvement I could put in my work. It was much better than my original and only a few words were changed. I think i'm missing a better conclusion its something really important in every piece of writing.
Reflection
At the beginning of the project I wanted to write about why Esports should be put on Television. But after a lot of research and discussion with the teacher I concluded that It would've been better talking about "why Esports isn't on Television". During the first staged of the project I thought that Esports needed Television to expand the audience but in reality it might be that Television needs Esports. The downdraft really improved after the critique not just the quantity but the quality. In the future I want to be more on task as this shows the potential I have when it comes to writing. In older pieces of work I would usually have only one draft and then immediately go to the final draft , in future r pieces I want to do what I did on this project so I can create pieces of writing that I am proud of. In my current piece think I can go more in detail about what Esports actually is so that others who don't know what Esports is can understand what i'm talking about.
