Analyze how you’ve adapted to the demands of this course over the past week, and evaluate one strength and one challenge you anticipate as we progress, justifying your insights with personal examples.

 Prompt Response: I have had to adapt by changing how I remember my homework. Usually I can just remember what I have for a certain class but now that I have a daily blog I really want to make sure I get it done every day so I have made a list on my desk to remind my self of the blog and other things I need to do. I think a strength that I have in this class is that I do not mind putting in extra time outside of class if I need to. I have spent many night staying up late because I have a lot of last minute assignments given out. A challenge is going to be doing lots of reading in a short time because I am a slow reader. I just always have all my life been a slow reader, through middle school into high school. 

Summary: We took a quiz over an origin myth.

Reflection: I learned about test taking strategies.

Describe a time that you had an encounter with a homeless person, either directly or indirectly. What did you think and how did it make you feel?

Think about the vocabulary words from Lesson Two. Write about a time you saw or heard one of these words outside of the classroom — maybe in a movie, song, social media post, or book. Describe how it was used and whether the context helped you understand the word better.

  Prompt Response:   I saw the word “brigand” in a book I was reading about adventures. It described a group of brigands who lived in the mountains and stole from travelers. From the story, I understood that a brigand is like a robber or thief. The way the author showed them attacking people made the meaning very clear. Seeing the word in the book helped me remember what it means. Summary: I did my part of the power point. Reflection: I learned new vocab words.

Describe one thing that makes you different from other people.

  Prompt Response:  Something that makes me different from a lot of people is that I am tall. I'm not that tall but compared to the average person my age I am usually taller or as tall as them. I do not know why because my mom is not that tall. My dad is also not that tall but my brother is. Maybe those height genes skipped a generation because my moms dad is very tall. He is still taller than me and he is 80 something. He's very old.  Summary: Learning more about poems and how to analyze them. Reflection:  I learned about the complexities of Emily Dickinson poems.
