Reflection 10/14/21

Today In Mr.Rease's American Literature class, my class took part two of the benchmark. I was really exhausted so I took a nap. In the middle of my nap, my body decided it was okay to let one rip... without my permission. I was sleep when it first started but at the end of it, I woke up. I heard the class go crazy and laughing. Everyone quickly noticed it was me because it was very quiet. I pretended to be sleep to save myself some embarrassment; it was still embarrassing, I was also trying not to laugh, because my classmates were saying some funny things. I just couldn't wait til it blew over, but they didn't forget to remind me when I woke up.

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 8/16/21

Today in Mr.Rease’s class we were asked what was the most important moment in Black History. I wrote about the Harlem Renascence, so when I seen a poem by Langston Hughs I got excited because I kind of called the lesson. We broke down his Poem “The Negro Speaks of Rivers”. This Poem was a little easier to break down saying there weren’t as many complex words. I had an pretty simple time in class.

 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.
