Reflection 1/18/22

Today in Mr.Rease American Literature Class we went over more rhetorical devices. First we went over metaphors. Mr.Rease showed us a metaphor "Life is a basketball game". We broke that metaphor down by comparing these two very opposite things. Saying good breaks are like timeouts and bad things you do are fouls. Then we had to make our own metaphors, positive ones and negatives. Then we started on analogies but couldn't get into it because we spent so long on metaphors. I had a good time in class today, I really like this 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.

Today I took the AP Statistics Exam, I studied hard for this. I was kind of nervous about it at first, but I was okay. The exam was a little too easy, I hope that's a good thing. I can;t wait for my results and see that I passed beautiful-y.

Today in Mr.Rease’s American Literature class we went over an old prompt. We were told to analyze the rhetorical strategies. As in rhetorical strategies they mean devices and appeals. It was a letter from Abagail Adams to John Quincy Adams with many emotional appeals and credible appeals. Class was pretty tiring today.
