Where’s Rease?

Today Mr.Rease was absent so we were sent to Ms.Wells’s class. In her class I decided to catch up on some homework and class work. This spare time was used very wisely and was greatly appreciated. Although today I wanted to review a little more on rhetorical analysis but Mr.Rease wasn’t present. Maybe tomorrow i’ll grasp the concept a little more.

Honor Code System

Today in class we learned more about rhetorical analysis. We also discussed why we should or should not establish a honor code system. In class we are constantly preparing for the Ap exam so today was very informative. I learned that I should answer the prompt and create a thesis statement. Today’s lesson was vital for the Ap exam and I enjoyed the lecture.

Early

Today in Mr.Rease’s class I presented my project.Then I got an early dismissal to find out if I made Azalea Trail Maid. Unfortunately I didn’t so I should’ve stayed in class.

I have a dream

Today in class we read and analyzed Martin Luther King’s “I have a dream” speech. While reading the speech we located many different rhetorical devices. We found logos, ethos, pathos and many other things. While reading a wave of emotion flushed my mind. Everything Martin Luther King wanted to happen in 1963 is now happening today. So I believe his speech did have an impact on America regarding segregation and civil rights.

Rhetorical Analysis

In Mr.Rease’s class today we learned more about Rhetorical Analysis. We also had 3 mock test questions. I also learned about something called Soapstone. Afterwards we read a story about Martin Luther King Jr writing a letter from Birmingham city jail. In order to write a Rhetorical Analysis i must know the passage. I must also know the Why, How, and so what. Class was very informative today I learned something new.

Resist the temptation

Today in Mr. Rease’s we took a quiz on the poem Constantly Risking Absurdity. The test lasted for about 45 minutes and was very easy. Afterwards we read our poems aloud to the class. Then Mr.Rease discussed Tupac’s song “Resist the temptation”. Mr.Rease broke down the song so everyone could understand it and compare it to real life issues.

Depression Poem

Depression

 A cruel disease I can’t cure
Something that’s always coming back for more
My life is a colorless movie
No color insight
My nights are dreamless I just lay down and cry
My days are weary as I fight this battle 
My heart, mind , and soul are all dressed in camo
A smile on my face but my heart is battered
I laugh at my pain it makes me feel better
I never even thought I would feel this unleveled
I take my mask off everyday 
It’s  always halloween 
But I never ever say trick or treat
Maybe  it’s me?
Wishing of happy days I’ll never see
Life is a battle but the only problem is i’m fighting me
