Reflection Jan/19/23

   Today in class we watched a short film called 'Identity'.  After we typed a blog about what we saw in the film, we went over our responses.  I decided not to go over mine because my response was it was pretty long.  Once we started to go over the video, I realized some other things about the film that I didn't catch while watching.  When we finished going over the film,  we were given a paper with 4 different students' paragraphs on applying for a job.  Mr.Rease went over th efirst student's paragraph with us and had us go over the other 3 by ourselves.  The assignment was to make revisions to their paragraphs.  In the last 15 minutes,  Mr.Rease went over two other strategies to brainstorm when writing.

Reflection Jan/20/23

 In class, Mr.Rease gave us a writing prompt. We had to think of a topic that we thought was overrated. The topic I went with was “wanting to fitting in”.  We then had to come up with five points to go with the main topic. My subtopics were: insecure, dependent, bad clout, superficial, and temporary. Of course, we had to elaborate on those subtopics. We put them in a graph where theres a circle in the middle and the small circles extending from it. Next week we’ll turn them into essays.
