Prompt: What was it like seeing how other people in the class think and express their ideas?

Prompt Response: I thought it was interesting how other people in the class thought and expressed their ideas on this assignment. Each group's argumentative paragraph was very different from the rest and had its own personal distinctions from the rest. Some groups had more detail in theirs while others didn't have as much; some groups relied on more personal experiences rather than readings for evidence. Overall, it was really cool how every group had their own distinction in the argumentative paragraphs, showing how other people in the class thought and expressed their ideas during this assignment.

Summary: On Friday in class, we read our feedback from each group on our unpopular opinion argumentative paragraph assignment. We then had a chance to update our submitted work and fix errors that our classmates listed on the paper or errors that Mr. Rease noticed that we could improve on. After revising our argumentative paragraph, we then submitted it officially for a grade.

Reflection: This will help me with taking constructive feedback and fixing my mistakes. This will help me do better on future assignments like this.

Prompt: Write about something that you believed as a child.

 Something that I believed as a child was Santa Claus. Christmas was very special to me back then because my parents would take my siblings and I to see Santa and we would write down our wish lists. Then when it was Christmas Eve my brothers and I would make cookies and leave milk for Santa. We would also leave out celery and carrots for the reindeer and we would leave him a nice card. My grandparents always came over and spent the night on Christmas Eve with us so we would watch Christmas classics and watch the Santa tracker until we got too tired and eventually went to our rooms to sleep. In the middle of the night it was impossible for me to fall asleep because of how excited I was for Santa to come. Most Christmas's one of my brothers and I would always wake up way early than everyone else to see what Santa brought and we would read his card and look at the Christmas tree illuminating in the dark. In the morning my parents always made a very good breakfast and we would open gif...

Prompt: Which learning method do you enjoy the most? Class discussions, worksheet work, or hands-on activities. Select one and tell why.

 Prompt Response: The learning method I enjoy most is hands-on activities. I really enjoy hands-on activities because it gives me practice but also makes the lecture or activity fun at the same time, so I am getting both good ends of the deal. I also work better when doing hands-on activities because I really enjoy doing them. Lastly, I am also very involved in hands on activites amd I typically do much better when I am up moving around or being active in an activity, so that is another reason why hands-on activities are the most beneficial method that I can do while also enjoying doing it as well. Summary: Today in class, we practiced supporting our reasons with claims to back up our evidence. We also made a box to identify five ways we experienced, observed, or read something to back up our claim. Reflection: I can apply this on any future assignment, test, or quizz involving readings where I need to back up my evidence. This is benficial so I can improve upon my backing up of ev...

Prompt: Talk about a time when you had to write a poem, whether it was for an assignment, event, or special occasion. What was the writing process like for you, and were you proud of the finished product?

 Prompt Response: A time I had to write a poem was last year in my pre-AP Language Arts class. Our class was doing our poetry unit, where we had to write a poem from the point of view of an everyday object. I chose to write about a pencil. The writing process was very smooth; I primarily focused on my rhyme scheme, and it worked very well. I also didn't have to stop and think mid-poem about what to write next; everything clicked. Ultimately, I was very pleased with the end result of my poem; it looked very professional, had a good rhyme scheme, and was quite humorous.  Summary: Monday in class, we analyzed a poem called "Constantly Risking Absurdity" by Lawrence Ferlinghetti. We took notes and highlighted important information in this poem to help answer a worksheet we would be doing in class on Tuesday. Reflection: This lesson helped me not only with analyzing a text but also with taking good, effective notes. This lesson will help me on future assignments, tests, and qu...
