REFLECTIVE ESSAY
This unit about short stories made me think about how much I like reading fiction. I have always
loved getting lost in stories created by talented writers. Before this, I didn't read many short
stories. But there's one I really liked called "The Lottery" by Shirley Jackson. It's kind of spooky,
but it made me think a lot.
Learning about short stories in this module was really interesting. I learned what makes them
different from novels, like how they focus on just one main thing. It helped me understand why
short stories are special. Also, learning about things like 'setting' and 'characters' made me
appreciate short stories even more.
While most of the unit was fun, some parts were a bit tricky to understand. Like when it talked
about short stories showing 'an experience' instead of 'experience'. That confused me at first.
Also, the idea of short stories focusing on just one main thing took some getting used to.
