Reflection 8/20/21

Today in Mr.Rease’s American Literature class we had to present. Group 2 and 4 presented. I am in group 2 we presented the poem, “Refugee In America” by Langston Hughs. This poem is about his passion about the thought of freedom, and his hate for the word liberty. His love, hate relationship is because of the way African Americans were treated in the 1920’s. Group 4 they talked about his poem about Dreams. It was many great discussions in class.

Reflection 2/10/22

Today in Mr.Rease’s American Literature class we made a commercial. In the commercial we compare two competing restaurants, Popeyes and Chick-fil-A. We had to make the commercial using rhetorical strategies. We planned the commercial then acted it out. I think we did a pretty good job executing all the points, I ran out of breath because we did a lot, lol.

Reflection 2/7/2022

Today in Mr.Rease's American Literature class we went over Steps to Write a Good Rhetorical Analysis. We went over a College Board Prompt to get prepared for the real thing. It was eulogy by Margaret Thatcher on Ronald Reagan. The steps are to read and analyze, identify rhetorical situations, read the passage, and plan the essay. It looked like Mr.Rease was about to put on a video so I put my head down, I was really tired. I have to go to work at 5 and don't know when I was going to take a nap. I believe I over-napped, I'm not sure what happened in those minutes I missed. I always regret falling asleep in class because I always miss something. But hey, all of my teachers posted today and I have all A's with three AP classes, so I'm pretty happy about that. I think i'm going to start drinking energy drinks.

Reflection 2/16/22

Today in Mr.Rease’s American Literature class we continued the play, Fences. Today I got to read as Troy. It felt kind of funny playing him. I put on my man voice and was always cursing at someone. In th next part of the play, Troy tells Rose that he has gotten another woman pregnant. Rose was very upset and they got into a heated argument. 6 months later we find out Alberta has the baby and she dies after birth. It was a crazy scene. I enjoy reading this play so much.
