Today in Mr.Rease’s American Literature class we read another Emily Dickinson poem. The poem we read was “I Felt A Funeral In My Brain” where she suggests that she has lost her mind. After we read the poem we had a prompt to write about a time where you lost your mind. I wrote about being in quarantine and how it was very repetitive. Everyday I would do the same thing to where I didn’t know what day it was. We determined 2 themes to the poem and wrote a claim.
Today in Mr.Rease’s 4th period American Literature class we learned about informal and formal texts. In class he gave us a passage with no context, we just read it. After we read it we all realized that there wasn’t really any theme or moral of the story. He then gave us a topic, which half of the class had already figured out midway through the passage. That was interesting to me because I didn’t get it until the prompt, which says a lot about myself. It was pretty fun breaking down the passage with the 2 different prompts. I’m glad I had a little nice time in 4th period today.
