Today in Class my classmates presented their group work. Group one went first. Their presentation was decent, but their poem had great meaning behind it. Group 3 went next. Group threes presentation was a bit unorganized but overall they did good. Their poem was about dreams and how they can change. Im confident my group will do well tomorrow.
Today in class we learned about rhetorical devices. The first one we discussed was hyperbole, which is an exaggeration. The second was understatement. An understatement is the force of a descriptive statement that is less than what one would normally expect. Third we went over litotes, which are an emphasis on a point by using a word opposite to the condition. Fourth we learned antithesis, this makes use of a contrast in language to bring out a contrast in ideals. Lastly we were introduced to hypophora which is asking a question then proceeding to answer it.
