 Prompt: Choose a vocabulary word that resonates with you personally. Write a blog post explaining why this word is significant to you, including any personal memories or experiences that link you to the word.

Prompt Response:

The vocabulary word that resonated with my personality more is "Gibberish". When I was growing up I had problems with speaking both English and Spanish, they had to pull my out of class to take speech lessons. I can admit that it was hard to understand what I was saying, I mostly spoke gibberish to people and I wasn't the smartest of the bunch. When I started to speak more to other people, my social skills were so bad it just seemed like I was speaking gibberish without making an actual conversation. 

Summary:

Today we had a school walkout before 7th period, the majority of the school participated. Once the walkout was over, we headed to our classes for 7th period, Mr. Rease was not here today and we had to go to a different class, room 1202, with another teacher. The assignment today was to complete the vocabulary of Lesson 7, on a separate sheet of paper we wrote down a sentence for each word and completed exercises 3 and 4. The work should have been done before the end of class and be turned in to the teacher present.

Reflection:

I can reflect that I was proven wrong when a lot of student did participate to the walkout instead of flanking out. It was nice to know that the school did allow students to protest against ICE, it was a new experience for me and I'm glad there are people who are willingly aware of the problems of this country. The work was simple and there were vocabulary words I already knew, so that was nice.

As you grow older and face new experiences, what issue or topic do you think you'll have to stand up and debate most often, whether with friends, family, or society?

 Prompt:  As you grow older and face new experiences, what issue or topic do you think you'll have to stand up and debate most often, whether with friends, family, or society?  Prompt Response: I am having trouble trying to think of an answer for this prompt, I am sure there are plenty of things I can argue with my family but I am not entirely sure what type of topic I will be needing to argue about as I grow. I think there is something that I will need to keep stating to people, that I do not plan to have kids any time soon or marry any person. I really want to live for myself and have fun with friends rather than settle down into a family while I can go out and explore. If I were to marry, I'd expect us to switch roles in cooking and cleaning or going to work rather than me staying at home and they go to work like how my mom suggests it. Summary: Today was a block day, we went over new notes this time about claim and continued on the previous notes from yesterday about ...

After reading “Out, Out—” by Robert Frost, reflect on a time when you faced a dangerous or high-pressure situation that demanded your complete focus. What made the situation risky, and how did your concentration affect the outcome?

 Prompt:  After reading  “Out, Out—”  by Robert Frost, reflect on a time when you faced a dangerous or high-pressure situation that demanded your complete focus. What made the situation risky, and how did your concentration affect the outcome? Prompt Response: I don't think I've ever faced a dangerous situation in life, besides driving. Huddle up people, so during the summer my mom thought it was best to teach me how to drive all around, she even had me drive on highways. There's probably a chance we faced danger everyday since I almost crashed every single day, every one of those days I had to immediately focus. One day we were driving peacefully down a long road, I noticed from afar there was a car trying to cross the road to the next and I didn't think they would cross yet because they wouldn't have time. Passing through with a good amount of speed, I looked to my right toward my mom and saw the car inches from my car and I immediately pressed down the pedal to a...
