Dear Classmates,

Dear fellow classmates,

      Can you believe it? We are reaching the end of our freshman year. It seems like just yesterday that we all walked into that classroom for the first time. We have all learned so much from the class, English 1 in general and our class as a whole. On the academic side, we learned many new techniques and other things that will benefit all of us in the future. We learned new vocabulary, grew as writers, and also read some books that were very interesting. But we did not only learn things related to acedemics, we also learned from each other. We learned proper class room behavior- which we are still working on- but we have certainly improved since the beginning of the year. There are many important things that I took away from this class.

      I think that we all have come a long way in this class. Sure, there are still days that we may not do the best, but I think as a whole we have improved and will hopefully carry that on to our english classes next year. It will be sad leaving this class because we have gotten used to each other and grown close, but I think that we all should have a positive mind going into next year. If we have a positive mind, and remember all of the things that we learned this year we should be successful next year. We have grown this year in many ways and I think that now we are ready to go to English 2 with pride.
