 Prompt: Words shape how we think, write, and interpret literature. Think about a time when learning a new word or understanding a specific term helped you better analyze a text, express an idea, or make your writing stronger.

Response: Learning new vocabulary has helped me write a lot better. I found that using a more broader vocabulary can make writing sound nicer and less repetitive. It can also help me express ideas or things more specifically. To add on, it also has improved my speech a lot more. I think that it's something we should all learn. 


Summary: In class we worked on a poem by Robert Frost and worked on our one pager.


Reflection: I reflected on how I can get some colored pencils for school.

  Prompt:  How have the holidays changed as you have grown older?

As I grew older, I found there are less things to look forward to. Most holidays, such as Easter, me and my family don't celebrate anymore because I am older now. Although, I think that the core values of family has still remained the same. Summary: In class we learned new vocabulary from lesson 6. Reflection:  I thought about how I can memorize these words.

Response: During Thanksgiving, I wanted to make mac n cheese for dinner. We held a small Thanksgiving dinner with my oldest sister. Baked mac n cheese is one of my favorite dishes so I wanted to include that into the dinner. I was very proud with how it turned out and I even used sourdough bread as the breading on top. That dish was the most memorable thing because it was really good and it's a recipe that I'll make again. My family liked it as well.
