Reflection; 8--23-21

 Today in class we learned about rhetorical situations. A rhetorical situation is any circumstance in which one or more people employ rhetoric.  There are 8 components  of rhetorical situations. The components are exigence,context,speaker, purpose,audience, text, genre,and message. Exigence is what motivated the writer to write. Context is when and what was happening during the time the text was written. Speaker is the person arguing. Purpose is what the author want to accomplish. Audience is the listeners, or who the author wanted to reach. Text is the spoken word. Genre is how the argument is delivered. Message is the theme. I enjoyed how the lesson was connected to real world events .

Reflection; 8-11-21

 Today was a gloomy day. On gloomy days I tend to drag throughout the day. Multiple times I was tempted to fall asleep. Once getting to your 4th period and seeing the poetry for us to analyze I immediately got discouraged as it isn’t my strong suit. Eventually I gave in to the temptations. I may have missed important information but i’m confident I got the bulk of the lesson. I’m hoping for a more upbeat lesson tomorrow.

Reflection: 4-13-22

 Today in class we read an article and answered multiple choice questions. I did much better on this one than the first one. I have gotten a hang of the process of elimination. I'm confident I'll be able to do this well on test.

Reflection : 11/29/21

 Today in class we read a fictional story. In this story their was a “frame” which was like and introduction that led to a more elaborate story. Todays story was called Ambush, in the frame of this story the narrators daughter ask him has he ever killed anyone. He lied to the daughter by say no. In the next part of the story we see the event a that led up to his kill. In class we also discussed whether there could be a good or bad kill. To me they can be a good kill, in my opinion this is when you kill some one with good reason. We also talked about the theme of the story which i felt was that your past action can affect your love in the present. Todays assignment was interesting and very interactive.
