The best blog that i posted that represents good analysis of a developing theme is the post from Novermber 26, a Tuesday.  This blog meets the standards of the rubric because it includes a good supporting quote from the story, the quote supporting the fact that something is wrong with the clock trees and it could spell disaster for Fillory and the castle.  Also, the quote is used to thouroughly describe what is wrong with the clock tree, as the trees are not usually 100 feet tall for example or 15 yards around.  The blog then ends with a question for the readers: "Do you think this is an omen of what is to come later, or do you think it is just there for show?"  This lets the reader interact more thouroughly with their comments, instead of just having them say what their opinion of the book is.  Lastly, the post gives the reader a very good idea of what happens in the book, although some details may have been left out.

A goal i have reading wise for next trimester is that i will read more books and read books from different genres instead of only reading from one or two genres.  Then, a goal i have for writing next trimester is to write things like papers or projects with better grammar and words that are on a higher level of thinking.  So, some things i could improve on in reading are reading more books and trying to read at least a little bit every night.  Also, i could try to improve on digesting the information that i read so i could understand it more.  Lastly, some things i could improve on in my writing is actually studying grammar and words more so i can build on my writing abilities.
