Prompt: What is the most creative thing you have ever made? Share what it was and explain why it stands out as your best work.

 The most creative thing I have made is a spear that I carved out of a stick. Throughout my childhood, my friends and I would make different objects out of sticks. I often carved spears and smaller sticks to make them similar to throwing knives. Still my spears that I carved stand out to be the most creative thing I've ever made. They were always functional, durable and vert fun to play around with.

Summary: Today in class we finished up our origin myths and created a visual poster to represent our origin myths. These posters included a theme and summary of our origin myths along with visual elements to describe them and the characters in the origin myth.

Reflection: I thought class was very fun today. I learned how to better use my creativity to turn words into visual drawings and representations.

Prompt: Dickinson uses the metaphor of a funeral to describe her inner struggles. What metaphor would you use to describe your own mind?

 I would say that my mind is like a lens. My mind allows me to focus in on the things that are most important to me, without worrying about other things. I focus more on following the Lord than anything else. In this way my mind is just like a lens, I don't focus on things that are only going to hurt me. Summary: Today in class, we completed three common lits. It took a bit but wasn't too difficult. Reflection: I learned how to better analyze theme. Along with that, I also learned how to better apply my own life connections towards other stories and texts.

I have enjoyed this class a lot. I really like Mr. Reese’s teaching style and I have I have learned a lot from that. My favorite assignment that we did is when we made our own poem and presented it to the class. Making my own poem challenged myself and I was able to truly express myself through the poem. One area where I feel I need support is in my vocab. Summary: I stayed home. Reflection: I learned how to better reflect through the blog post.
