 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.

Found Poem from "The Color Purple"

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.
