I think my biggest strength is, mostly my thoughts about the article. I can really get great thoughts and opinions about what I read.
What I think I should work on is mostly summarizing the article. I need to put more thought into the summery.
Most people say that I do well on the thoughts and putting in my point of view.
I have heard that I need to make my blog work longer, and make a bigger summary.
The next time I will improve on my summary and making a longer explanation.

I think my biggest strength is getting it done on time and having it well edited. What I really need to work on is the fact that the post is a little too short. What I've seen most in other people's comments on the blog is to make the post longer. When the post is positive, they usually say that I pick an interesting topic. I will improve on making the post longer. (Darn, you can only use this size... I guess I'll have to type more...)

I think that my biggest strength is that when I write up an article report of reflection, I really put myself out there. I put a lot of information, I elaborate and I hand it in all on time, sometimes even really early. Something I should work on, is breaking some of the themes down. I may understand what the words or phrases mean, but others may not.

On the PVC science blog for Mr.Ardito, I have completed all my work. My strengths on the blog are good; I think that I can write more on the assignments though. On the next blog assignment I want to try to write as much as I can. Other students say that I have good information and choose good articles. They also say I should write a little more and write where the article is from.

On the PVC science blog I have completed every blog assignment. My strengths for all of the blog assignments are probably summing all of the information up and talking about what I learned from the article. For example, when we have a weekly science article assignment I am good at writing the summary for the article and stating what I learned. I think I need to work on writing down more questions that I have about the articles or assignments. Most students say that the facts that I state are very interesting. I will work on improving making my assignments longer.

I finished all of my work on the P.V.C science blog. My strengths on the blog are posting my thoughts and having a lot of information on the articles I read. I think I should work on my spelling when I write on the blog. Some words I don’t spell correctly and so I think that that’s one of my weaknesses that I should work on. Other students say that my work is good and that it makes them interested in the article I read. Students that comment on my work also say that I should improve on my spelling. I will work on my spelling and read over what I wrote so it all makes sense in the next blog assignments.

I think my biggest strength is getting the assignment in on time and writing enough text and information in the posts. I think my weakness is mostly from what the comments said was that I didn’t edit my work enough. I am aware of this and I will fix it on the next blog assignment and make shore that every word is spelt right and is in the correct grammar form.

I think that my strengths are that i put the information i use into my own words, i also get my work done on time and i can pick any topic to research an I'm not too picky about a topic to research and put on the blog. Some things i think i need to work on are putting in my thoughts and expanding what i put on the blog. I usually don't get many comments but when i do my classmates say that the article i chose was interesting and what they say i should improve on is the length of the summary.

On pvc science blog i think competed all my work and made comments to class mates.
I think my biggest strength is giving a summary about my articles and giving inforimation and my thoughts.What i need to work on is asking questions and adding a little bit of more inforimation and oraganizing my articles. People comment on my work saying you did a great job but you need to add a little inforimation and thoughts. Next time before I post my work i should ask more questions about my article and add as much inforimation i can.

I think my strengths are that I summarize the articles well and that I finish my blog work on time, and that my work is well edited.

I think I should work on answering better what I learned from the articles and ask more questions.

Students have said that my articles are interesting and that they learned a lot.

Students suggested that I ask more questions to improve my work.

The next time I will work on asking more questions and including more on what I learned.

I think i might of forgotten 1-2 assignments. My strength is my thoughts and how i explain what i have learned. Other students say my reports are well done, i just need more questions. Completing all of the assignments to come and thinking of more questions i can put down.

In the previous blog work I have done for Mr. Ardito has been simple, nice, and easy, and just the way I like it. So in my previous blogging, I'd have to say some of my strengths are, grammar, thoughts, and following the directions Mr. Ardito gives to us bloggers.
When students talked about my blogging, I have received nothing but good comments. In a way I'm happy about that, but if I don't receive negative feedback or suggestions on improvement, I won't know what to change or work on improving next time.
But personally what I think I need to improve is, trying to understand the material I'm blogging about just a little bit more (so I really understand what I'm talking about), and trying to dig deeper into finding more questions to ask so I can get as much information I need as possible.

I think my strengths are that i have a good amount of details.
I think i need to work on what interests me more about the article i have read.
They said I have a good article and very good details.
They said I should improve on what I find more interesting about the article.
What i find interests me.

My biggest strength so far was upco work. I think it is easier for me than other things. I think my weakness is the labs. And completing work. I also need to study more.

My strengths on the blog are: Posting on time, and giving my opinions on the weekly article assignments. What I should work on is the quantity of my writing and spelling, I always seem to miss a few mistakes. Other students say my reports are good and interesting. What they say I should work on is the amount I write. The way I will improve is my writing more and checking over my work more than once.

My strengths are: that i get my blog work done on time. Another strength that i have is that i reflect the article well. I think what i need to work on is that i need to expand my thoughts more.

Main article: Asexual reproduction
I was reading this article about asexual reproduction and how it makes(creatates) the same copy of the original cell. Which is the daughter cells. This article mainly talks about how cells are created, how they dublicate and make something new.
The article that i read is just like the stuff that we are going over and doing in class right now and looking at this gives me a little more information about what happend, and the things that go on to make other cells. Reproduction os important becuase without reproduction cells would remian the same and the idea is to make identical copies over and over. Cells with always need to divide themselves just incase. Before I knew that cells had to divide but i did not know that they had to make identical copies of themselves. It pretty cool that they do.

I think My biggest strength in blog work is my effort I put in to the blog work. I should work posting a little earlier than Friday first thing in the morning. Students say that I have a lot of information. I will try to work on posting a little earlier than Friday first thing in the morning

I think my biggest strength is that I don't plagarize and use my own words when writing the article. If I agree with what the article said, then I put it in my own words rather than copying and pasting the article. I think I should improve on making my posts longer and having more thoughts in it.

On the blog, I think I have completed all the assignments. My biggest strength is putting in my feedback on the article. If I were to improve my blog work, I would try getting the assignments ALL on time, and adding more details on the article itself.
I've only gotten two comments, and they were just critiquing me, I don't remember what other people said i did well. When they did critique me they told me to add more details. In my next article, I know i will get it in on time and try my hardest to add details.
