Adriel's English Blog

 Today Mr.Rease was not her so I did work for other classes. I heard that we do not need to blog this week but I decided to blog anyways just to be sure.

 Today we had another free day so I did a little work from my other class and relaxed the rest of class.

 Today we took the 2nd and 3rd section of the milestones. These sections were definitely more difficult but it makes sense since there were way more questions. I still think I did decent though. I am made though because I reached my character limit doing the narrative. I didn't properly finish it but I think I did well still.

 Today in Mr.Reases class, we had a free day since we took part 1 of the EOC for that class. I had to write an informative essay about the Internet's influence on independent artists. I think I did very well on the essay and will get a good score on that part.

 Today we were virtual so we did not have class. I just prepared for the EOC. 

 Today in Mr.Reases class we did a little run over of the tools we would have on the test. The tools were pretty straight forward and simple to use. Afterwards we looked at some pre-test day notes. They basically were about what to eat, rest, and be ready for a test since the milestones are coming in 2 days. 

 Today in Mr.Reses class, we did multiple choice practice. We used the process of elimination in order to more easily answer the questions. I like this method alot and will definitely use it.

 Today in Mr.Reases class, we practiced with informative essays. I like the topic of the text too (college debts). It is a realistic topic that we should talk about in school more often. We basically listed information relating to the topic and just like narrative essays, I enjoy informative essays more than argumentative.

 Today in Mr.Reases class, we did practice with narrative essays. I definitely would rather have a narrative than an argumentative essay because they are easier and alot more fun to do. I didn't finish my narrative in class but I think my first paragraph was pretty good.

 Today in Mr.Reases class, we continued with argumentative essay practice. I found using 2 pieces of evidence from the text to support my claim a little difficult but I understand the concept of the essay. 

 Today in Mr.Reases class, we did practice with argumentative essays in preparation for the Georgia milestone. The practice was pretty straight forward and helped me with creating claims. 

 Today in Mr.Reases class we presented our found poems. Everybody did well but there were a few that really stood out. Afterwards read so more of "The Color Purple". It made me so sad to see Harpo and Sofia drifting apart the way they were. I hope that in the future they find some way to come back together and rebuild a happy bond. I love Celie and Sofia's relationship they are building. Letter 35 has some very interesting and explicit content that was very juicy. Very fun reading today.

Mama Knows Best "I seen my baby girl." "I knowed it was her." "She look just like me and my daddy." "Like more us then us is ourself."  "She got my eyes just like they is today." "Like everything I seen, she seen, and she pondering it." "I think she mine."  "My heart say she mine."  "If she mine, her name Olivia." "I embroder Olivia in theseat of all her daidies." "I embrody lot of little stars and flowers too." "He took the daidies when he took her." "She was bout two month old."  "Now she bout six"

 Today in Mr.Reases class, we read more of "The Color Purple". We got to see Shug Avery come to the house and she was very sick. The interactions between her and Mister and her and Celie were very entertaining. Especially when we watched the movie adaptation. "The Color Purple" is honestly a very good book and I can't wait to finish it.

 Today in Mr.Reases class we picked up on our reading of "The Color Purple". We read a few letters and made themes from those letters. We then finished by answering a 3 part question that talked about Celie and Sofia and how they compare. It was a nice question to answer.

 Today in Mr.Reases class, we finished our benchmark.

 Today in Mr.Reases class we just took part of a benchmark. It was a little annoying to read the long passages but I got a good amount done.

Today in Mr.Rease class, we finished up presentations on the literature circle assignment. They went by pretty fast. Afterwards we watched what we read in the book so far for "The Color Purple". The comedy is very effective and I love it. I can't wait to see more Harpo and Sofia interactions.

 Today in Mr.Reases class we had my groups present their literature circle assignment. Group 6 was my favorite as they added an attention grabber being a song at the beginning and it definitely got my attention. Although I did find it difficult to think of a question to ask for the 321 assignment we did on each group(3 themes from the letter, 2 things we found interesting, and 1 question about the presentation). But overall, it was a good day in class.

 Today in Mr.Reases class, 3 groups, including mine, presented the lietterature circles assignment. The presentation was fun and I think our did very well.
