Reflection 3/28/22

Today in Mr.Rease's American Literature we had a AP prompt. The prompt was about if comedians should be off limits to jokes. We referred to the situation that occurred last night at the Oscars, where Will Smith got up and slapped Chris Rock in the face and cursed him out because of the joke he made about Jada Pinkett Smith's shaved head. We were given 5 articles where they all said Will Smith had no right to assault Chris Rock. I don't he should have checked him with violence, he could've kept it at words being exchanged. It was the wrong place and time for him to do that for the simple fact this is a white award show where you possibly may receive an award. Will Smith slapping him was completely wrong timing. Chris Rock shouldn't have joked on Jada because they've already been going through enough this past year in the media.

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 9/30/21

 Today in Mr.Rease’s American Class, we worked on the first step of the project. We made clusters with five subtopics. Each subtopic had 3 extra topics to them. It was better than yesterday because we had an extra mind. Alisha was a lot of help, I think I can speak for Natalya and I that we couldn’t do the brainstorming by ourselves. 

Reflection 11/29/21

Today in Mr.Rease’s American Literature class we read a passage. It was a frame passage, I think that’s what is was called. In the passage a man was asked by his young daughter if he killed anyone, to which he respond “of course not”, but he lied. He told the actual story to the reader, how he killed a man for simply walking by, as he was trained to do. It triggered internal conflict to which he regrets killing the man and he wants to tell his daughter the truth. It was pretty good, and we had a series of questions to answer that wasn’t hard.
