After going over the sample essays in class today I decided that my Close Reading essay is about a middle-low. While examining the other close readings, we decided that in one essay the analysis was pretty good but scarce. In the other essay we discussed that they did an ok job actually close reading but lacked some analysis. While referring to my close reading essay, I can see that I need to work on my close reading skills some more. I feel like I just quoted it, said what it meant and then moved on. I feel that if I work more on my analysis I will have a better, and more interesting paper that will be more intriguing to the reader.
