Personal Narrative: My English Divider

Decent Essays
Organization is a thing I struggle with at times. The reason being is I sometimes I just throw everything together and do not actually take the time to put things in order. When I do organize my things I get one big notebook and put four dividers in it to separate my classes from each other. I always put the first divider as Math because it is always the class that I get a lot of papers and information for. I first put the written down notes in the front such as problems that I have worked out, then I put the handouts in the back because I feel sometimes the written notes are more important. The second divider is normally the second class I have a lot of papers for which is normally English.

After a certain point in my life though, I have always had a preference for English, a preference that I didn't act on until recently.…

    When writing a paper or essay in the past I have used the outlining technique and have found that at the end I had scribbled all over a paper and had to write everything again on another piece of paper. Since being in this class I have become fond of the visual organizers. Kristen has done a great job with them on her videos and section 5.01 in the eLearning solidified my liking to visual organizers.

Once I have all my ideas written down I can lay them out and move them around which allows for my brain to be stimulated and produce the best work possible.…
