After two weeks of studying rhetorical devices, types of rhetoric, and methods for identifying rhetorical techniques, which rhetorical device do you find most effective or compelling, and why?

 After learning about Rhetorical devices, I find Metaphors to be the most effective as they allow you to show a direct correlation and create powerful imagery. I was not here on this day so I cant say what we did in class, but I will say that learning about rhetorical devices is important to shaping the lens you view media in.

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.

Describe your personal approach to creativity. What steps do you follow when you’re working on a project. Tell me about a project you created that you were most proud of.

 My personal approach to creativity starts with a brain dump where I put down all the ideas that I have relating to the topic at hand. Next, I move into formulating the actual project and refining as I go until I am satisfied with the outcome. A project that I'm proud of is my science fair project in middle school. I was very interested in my topic, so I was very thorough with my research, experiment, and paper. I ended up going to the state fair for my project and won an award. Today in class, we did a writable assignment where we read a short passage with attached vocab and answered comprehension questions. I was absent at the end of last week, so I made up a quiz. Today's work will help me improve my reading comprehension and vocab which are both important skills going into college.

If you had to describe how you show love using only three objects (for example: a playlist, a hoodie, a late-night snack, a long text message, etc.), what would you choose and why? Explain what each object represents and how it connects to your personality.

 The objects that describe how I show love are a playlist, a movie, and a hoodie. A playlist shows my connection to music and how important it is to my life. Next, the movie is one of my favorite ways to relax, and finally, a hoodie shows my affection for being comfortable. Today we did pretty much nothing in class. This helped me relax.
