Reflection 8/23/21

 Today in Mr. Rease’s class we learned about rhetorical situations and parts of them. The eight parts are exigence, context, speaker, purpose, audience, text, genre, and message. The example we used was a speech from the mayor of Atlanta about the George Floyd protests and riots. We found all of the parts of rhetorical situations in the speech. We also logged into APclassroom and learned about the grades we can get on the AP exam. I did not know that no one at Cedar Grove has ever gotten a five, which is the highest score, on the AP exam. All in all, the class was easy today and I hope to use what I learned in the future.

Reflection 9/30/21

 Today in Mr. Rease’s class we continued to work on our projects. We had to think of a topic to make a prompt. Mr. Rease said all the groups were going to switch prompts when we finished. No one in the class expected that. It is somewhat annoying though, since we have to do research and stuff just to switch topics. I think my group received the best topic, but hopefully we can get the second best after groups switch topics. Our group will probably still do good on the project, regardless of the topic we have.

Reflection 2/7/22

 Today in class we went over steps to right a good rhetorical analysis. We analyzed a eulogy by Margaret Thatcher about Ronald Reagan.

He wrote an example of a body paragraph to demonstrate what a good one looks like. He also did that with the entire essay. Tomorrow he is going to show us what bad essays look like.
