Reflection 8/23/21

 Today in Mr.Rease’s American Literature class we learned about Rhetorical Situation. I learned a rhetoric means the art of arguing effectively. Rhetorical situation will always be given in the prompt’s introduction. A new word I learned is exigence. Exigence in rhetorical situation, is what motivates the speaker to argue. Speakers/writers that uses rhetoric are called rhetors. 8 themes of rhetorical situations are: exigence, speaker, context, purpose, text, message, audience, and genre. We watched Keysia Lance Bottoms’s speech, Go Home, and broke down the rhetorical situation.

Reflection 8/29/21

Today in Mr.Rease’s American Literature class we presented our work. The first group was the first half of the chapter. They had an interesting illustration, and some good question. I think I answered all of group 1’s questions. Group 2 had an interesting illustration also. In my group, Kyla was the summarizer and I was the questioner. I think I had pretty good questions, I’m sure everyone was drained by the time my group went up.

Reflection 5/3/22

Today in Mr.Rease's Mr.Rease's American Literature class we didn't do anything. Mr.Rease went over a few people's essays that we did yesterday. I had a pretty good day because I found out that since I am a Junior Marshall my last day of school is May, 11th. We will participate in the graduation since we are the top 5% of the Junior class. I forgot to mention that Coach Adams asked me to be one of the football managers which means free games all season, so I earned 2 great seats in the house.

Today I didn’t come to school today. I was in Stockbridge helping my friends’ mom move. She needed all the help she could get so I asked my mom if I could help. After about 3 hours of unpacking, we sat down and had something to eat.
