Reflection: 9-1-21

Today in class we talked about the 2 types of thesis statements. The first type is the 3 point thesis statement. The 3 point thesis statement is the thesis where you state your position and 3 claims. This is used for smaller essays. The second type is the umbrella thesis statement. The umbrella thesis statement is where you state your topic , the point, and allude to the claim. This is used for larger essay, where you need to broaden your claim to have more to talk about.

 Today in class we finished up our benchmark assessment. We only had to complete our extended response question. We had to write 2-3 paragraphs. I’m confident that I did ok on my test. This was the most challenging part of the test. Only because I don’t know how to make an essay that short.

 Today’s class was lack luster. We didn’t do anything interactive. We started class off with an assessment on terms we haven’t looked at or thought about since writing them in our notebooks. Since I did do a bit of cram studying I think I did pretty well on the test. After completing this test we did a pre-test. This test wasn’t very hard either, it was boring though. I also didn’t get to complete my extended response question.

 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.
