Describe a time when someone’s words had a lasting impact on you.

 Prompt Response: When my brother told me about a close call he had had while driving. It really resonated with me, and after that I have been a safer driver. I think hearing about a close call like that from someone as close as your brother can really impact you in a different way than even a close friend. It hits way closer to home for me I think when it came from my brother, because I have had people tell me things like that before and it just wasn't the same.

Summary: We revised are argumentative papers and did another assignment. 

Reflection: I learned how to revise other peoples argumentative paragraphs.

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.
