Wait, you're in college cuddles…?
@Canoas, there's a 90% chance that this guy has no idea what his teacher truly wants from this essay and chances are, this was suppose to be an informative essay, yet he's too dead set on stocking to a reference text as closely as possible that he has literally warped the initial instructions of his professor in order to make it suitable so he can strictly follow the guideline set up by the example. From the rules post he made about the structure of this essay, it's obvious that he has no clue what the teacher really wanta and is fumbling through a binder full of papers to complete an essay assigned weeks ago. I ain't helping this idiot more than I have (seeing how he was asking for me to do a body paragraph for him). My last piece of advice to cuddles is to pay attention in class and actually do the exercises in class and NOT WAIT TO THE LAST MINUTE TO DO PROJECTS. That means NOT spending 90% of your work time on videogames. Aight, abandon thread!!!

... Your teacher was pretty clear on what the assignment was.
Quoted:
First, I want you to read the following essays: "The Making of Poems", "In Giving I Connect With Others", and "Asking the Right Questions". Then, for each essay, paraphrase each writer’s belief by putting it in your own words. After that, quote 3 significant passages/lines that you feel you can relate to and then writing either a question, comment, experience, or emotion that this quote brings up for you. In total, you should have 1 paraphrase, 3 quotes, and 3 personal reactions (1 for each quote).

Then why the hell are you linking previous assignments? Link the one you're supposed to do, not the ones you've already done.
if you actually look at the 3 Essays that we were supposed to read
You would get a better understanding of how my own essay is supposed to be :P
I based my assumption that "I" statements would be permitted if necessary if necessary because:
A) This is high school.
B) My high school also did a "This I believe" project in which students were encouraged to give an account of their own experiences, including "I" statements.
And Tosh, maybe your college is different or something but as far as I know, MLA essays discourage using "I" statements outside of examples from personal experience. If you're using something from your own life as evidence in your essay, you have to use "I."
