Today in Mr.Rease's American Literature class we wrote a speech to encourage our peers not to do drugs. We first had a bell ringer to answer and had to fill in the blanks. The fill in the blanks were based on the song we read by Tupac in class yesterday. Today in my two paragraph speech I used five rhetorical devices. The five rhetorical devices I used were: distincto, procatalepsis, hyperbole, rhetorical question, and antithesis. I think I did really good on my speech and will get an A.
Today in Mr.Rease’s American Literature class, I did a bell ringer. In the bell ringer we were asked to define a somebody, a nobody, and who am I. We learned about the poet Emily Dickinson. She was born 1830 and later died 1886 only for her poems to be released after she passed. We read her poem “I’m Nobody! Who Are You?”. Where she explains you’re an outcast for being a nobody, and broadcasted for being a somebody. It gave me more of a perspective mostly about myself. I can make a connection like how I dress for me, but also dress so I don’t get laughed at. I really like the 2 poems we analyzed together so far and can’t wait to do more.
