Reflection 1/18/22

 Today in Mr. Rease’s class we learned about metaphors and analogies. We have 33 rhetorical devices we have to go over and we have done 11 so far. So it might take about 3 or 4 weeks to complete the whole book of notes. I did not really learn anything knew, since analogies and metaphors are very common rhetorical devices. I wonder what other devices we will learn about in the following weeks. I have probably used many if not all of the ones in the book, even without me knowing what it was.

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.
