Learning Journal 7: Reflect upon your progress to date, consider the effectiveness of your learning plan and activities, and discuss what changes--if any--you will make to finish the semester.
So far I have been following through with my initial study plan. The only things that has not gone as anticipated is the study of sounds. Mastering sounds and identifying patterns of pronunciation while reading is takin longer than I thought I would. This could be a setback for speaking and so I want incorporate more oral practicing of sounds. This might push a few of the items on my learning plan for later. I have realized I could use more exposure to the language to be able to become more familiar with Portuguese sounds and so I have created a music playlist in Portuguese and have made an effort to watch TV in Portuguese. Overall, I think there is a chance I will not get to the last few items in my study plan by the end of April but I think I can still follow it even if I fall a little behind.
