Prompt: If you were to compose a poem about one aspect of your life, which topic would it fall into and what would your overall life's message be?

Prompt Response:
If I were to compose one, the topic would be Memory and the overall message would be to cherish the present and learn from the past. Why I chose Memory is because I have this bad habit of missing the past and always thinking how simple things really were, I always recall the memories and keep whatever I can have from the past. If I were to cherish the present I wouldn't need to feel like I missed out on things in the future. 

Summary:

Today we completed analyzing the other two poems of Emily Dickinson, "I heard a Fly buzz - when I died - (591)" and "Hope' is the thing with feathers", we went more quickly than usual and afterwards we would be doing our assignment of a Song playlist based on these poems. 5 songs in total and it was due today, we weren't able to complete another assignment due to the lack of time and it was pushed till Friday. 

Reflection:

One thing I would've learned from analyzing these poems is nothing too much because I still cannot comprehend how Mr. Rease immediately understands the form of language these Poems speak. I guess I learned that I need to still work on my skills and will need to review on the poem we analyzed.

 Prompt:  Reflect on your research topic and identify the most compelling issue connected to it. Clearly explain what the issue is and discuss why you find it particularly interesting or important. Support your response with specific details from your research. Prompt Response: The most compelling issue connected to it is the massive enforcement and deportation initiatives with humanitarian protection obligations and civil liberties. More specifically, the tightened U.S. immigration regime, I find it interesting and important since it's a big major issue today. The immigration policies of the country had impacted economically, socially, and politically, creating different outcomes for the immigrants or migrants who struggle to survive. Summary: Today we worked on selecting sources, each person presented a source from each category, then we would pick the best one to use. Mr. Rease gave us two worksheets to work on, my group managed to finished one paper. We had to fill in the ...

As the first semester comes to an end, take time to reflect on your learning and growth in this course.

Prompt Response: What I most enjoyed about this class was how funny my classmates can be, the only entertaining people of my day since everybody in my other classes are either boring or annoying. I also enjoyed the work, not always but the majority of it was not overwhelming and I appreciate how Mr. Rease thoroughly explains what we need to do. I haven't felt completely clueless in a while and its a great feeling compared to last year. I don't really recall any project or assignment that I fou...

  Reflection: This assignment helped me reflect over my character and how simple I can be, I already knew some of the basic stuff about myself and it was nice to look back into it again. I barely needed to introduce my character or personality with other people so this is one of the few experiences that I get to do so.
