WRITINGAS5PECTATORSPORT (reviews)

1. Megan Hardisty (http://mhardistyrhsenglitcomp.blogspot.com/2013/02/writing-as-spectator-sport-essay.html?m=0). Wow is all I can say after reading Megan's essay. It's incredibly challenging to put intelligible, relevant and well thought connections on paper but she did this and more. I just finished reading of mice and men actually and the connections of characterization depict critical thought and are indicative of the high quality analyses she laces in her first paragraph. Her pre-write alone exemplifies a thorough outline that I'm sure she would followed up excellently if she had more time. Great job Megan :)

2. Ashlie Pfeiferr (http://cwestrhsenglitcomp.blogspot.com/2013/02/writingas5pectatorsport-ashlie.html)
Writing on "No Exit" Ashlie's essay is just as through as one can be for such a spontaneous request as Sphinx says write. I like how she connected/used examples deriving from her own experiences while remaining true to the thesis of the prompt.

3. Feli Ruiz (http://fruizrhsenglitcomp.blogspot.com/2013/02/spectator-writing-spinx.html)
I have no criticism for Feli's essay, she answering the prompt succinctly as well as extensively. I'm certain that, if she hones this art of tackling prompts, the perpetual balancing act of speed/quality, I'm confident she will ace the AP Exam. Her work speaks for itself.

4. Matthew Patel (http://mpatelrhsenglitcomp.blogspot.com/2013/02/5phynxing.html)
I shouldn't criticize (SEE MY OWN PRE-WRITE...) but the only place of  lacking would be maybe Matthew's Pre-write. Aside from that hes pretty golden, a sure-fire AP exam passer.

5. Alex Lane (http://cwestrhsenglitcomp.blogspot.com/2013/02/writingas5pectator-sport-alex.html)
Alex's pre-write is the paradigm of planning, i mean look he even has a quote relating to the thesis of his essay! The only criticism I can lend would be well, more essay :) at the cost of an extensive pre-write the essay seemed to suffer, however his body paragraphs did succinctly support his ideas with proper examples/answered the prompt. All in all, great job Alex!
