Chapter 14

    In this chapter Vivian is at Grants house. When Grant introduced her too the community you could tell that he was really feeling Vivian. In the field of sugarcane Grant and Vivian make love. From the looks of it it looks as if they relationship has gotten stronger.

Chapter 1-3 reflection day 1

       I found chapters 1-3 very interesting. It first tells us about Jefferson, a black man alibi on the same night Mr.Grope a white store owner who was killed. Jefferson’s attorney told the court that he was a boy, instead of a man. In chapter 2 I later discovered that Jefferson being called a hog and a boy bothered Miss Emma deeply. Tante Lov convinces Grant to go and take herself and Miss Emma to talk too Henri Pinchot about him no longer being a boy I fact saying that he would die as a man.

MLK

    In Martin Luther King’s speech he makes use of many rhetorical devices. In the “I Have a Dream” speech he uses repetition, pathos, and logos. One repetition that Dr.King uses is “I have a dream”. He kept using it too show how he really dreamed of America and how he hope it will be. Dr.King also uses “Now is the time” to emphasize that it was the time too march on Washington. Dr.King also uses pathos too appeal too the emotions of the people of America. “I have a dream that my four children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character ”. “This will be the day when all of God’s children will be able to sing with new meaning “My country, ‘‘tis of thee, sweet land of liberty, of thee I sing”. King appealed too the audience emotions by mentioning the kids in a better predicament.

American Dream

     In my opinion the American Dream is the belief that each person has the opportunity to achieve his or her dreams. Each individual should aspire too happiness and contentment. Every American citizens should have the opportunity too accumulate wealth and happiness.

Ending

Everything has to end
no matter if you wanted it forever or temporarily 
Everything has to end
no matter if you loved it or hate it
Some day everyone dies and rises again.

1st Blog of 2019

     One thing I learned from first semester was how too be a better comprehender. When I first entered Mr.Rease class I had trouble comprehending what I read but now I have no problem. Now I know that annotating is a big skill too use too comprehend.





   Something I need too work on is time management. When we do the practice essays I have no time management I always be on the last paragraph. By taking Mr.Rease that could be a easy task too overcome.


    Something I hope too learn is how too understand poems. I have a difficult time understanding poems because they don’t always make it easy too know what they talking about.

First Quarter Summary

  First quarter was full of discussions. Everything we did we turnt it into a discussion or an argument. Through out the quarter I got too know my classmates better and also Mr.Rease. In the quarter I learned the basics behind writing an essay. I was giving the steps too follow through out each body paragraph. However I didn’t like the outcome of my grade because I know it could have been better. This quarter I would like to improve on my writing skills and technique. I will also continue to learn about how to manage time.
