House on mango st. Essay
For this essay our prompt was, "How has Esperanza grown up?". My thesis for this essay was, "At the beginning of the story, Esperanza is ashamed and easily discouraged by what other people think of her, but by the end she learns to be proud and gains a new found confidence and courage." the reason I made this my thesis is because it should be able to be cut into to different parts, one for the first body paragraph and the other for the second. I got a 2 on this project because there were many little components required that I over looked. My strengths in this essay was that I included lots of strong facts to back up my opinions. The areas that I still need to improve on are my transitions. My goal for my next essay is to get at least a 3.
