Keeping up with Kyla👑

 Today in class we talked bout comedians. We discussed whether comedians should be able to say what they please. The current event of Will Smith slapping Chris Rock was brought up and we made claims and evidence based around this incident. I think that Will Smith was justified in the slap. He has every right to defend his wife. 

 Today in class we took a test.  the test was based on the book we were reading, "Thank You For Arguing". There were only 15 questions. The test was multiple choice. I missed a few questions, but my grade was an 80. Next time i will read more carefully, and try to work faster. 

Today in class we talked about u npopular opinions. This time we wrote down two. We then have selected only one of our two to present. We wrote our opinion on the board and discussed as a class. Beginning with those that agreed to the presenters point, then with those that disagreed. My two unpopular opinions were that high school isn't that difficult, and that online shopping is better than in person shopping.  There weren't many controversial topics today. 

 

 Today in c lass we  went over another prompt. We compared nationality to individuality. We also picked our position on the matter. We decided if we felt they were similar or not. We also decided which one  we viewed to be more important. I picked individuality as more important. I also decided that nationality and individuality were somewhat connected. I don't believe that they work hand in hand but they are alike. 

 Today in class, we were reading  the same book that we've had since last week. "Thank You for Arguing". We read chapter five by ourselves. After reading the chapter we  summarized it, listed five main points of it, and told how we could use it in real life. After this we were given an example from the AP exam. We annotated the prompt and picked our positions. 

 Today in class we learned something new. We learned about inductive and deductive reasoning. Deductive reasoning is drawing a conclusion that is certain. Inductive reasoning is drawing a conclusion that is uncertain. We did a helpful work sheet with 20 questions to help us understand how the reasonings differ and how they’re used. Today class was pretty fun.
