Prompt: After viewing your classmates’ digital posters and reading the feedback comments left on your work, what new ideas or perspectives did you gain about your poster? Reflect on how the feedback influenced the way you think about your creative choices and describe what you learned about the creative process while designing and presenting your poster.

 In the making of this project it took some creativity and focus. This project was fairly easy, it just took some time. I used a template to fulfill this project and elements to add pictures in regards to each comparison. I think the descriptions really helped with the understanding of these similes and metaphors and really helped me see that similes and metaphors can put a deeper meaning into things big or small.

Prompt: Reflect on the simile and metaphor worksheet. Which topic challenged you the most when creating your figurative language, and why? In your response, explain what made that topic difficult and how you worked through the challenge (or what you might do differently next time).

 The topic that was hardest for me was "learning who you are or who you want to become." It was hard for me too find a comparison to relate to this that wasn't the same as the comparison used for the topic , "Moving schools, friendships ending, growing up. Since they are kind of similar in struggles it was hard for me to think of two different comparisons. To work through it I asked for some recommendations from different classmates to get an idea.

Today you created similes and metaphors that reflect your struggles, growth, and resilience. In a well-developed paragraph, reflect on the process. What did you learn about yourself while writing your figurative language?

 While creating similes and metaphors that reflected on my struggles i realized how creative i am and how many things can truly be compared to relatable feelings and event. I learned that ive grown a lot mentally and pushed through a lot more things than i realized. A lot of times things people go through can be downplayed when sometime it needs to be more looked upon and even maybe exaggerated. I also realized how hard it is to creatively think of these comparisons on the spot.

 Over the break i found myself doing alot of cleaning, self reflecting and binge watching. It seemed like everyday of the break i found myself cleaning something new but i honestly enjoyed it. I also did some reflecting on my relationships and how i handled things in the past, and what i could do to be better. My favorite YouTuber uploaded a bunch during this break so i spent alot of time watching him

Prompt: 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.

If i had to describe how i show loving using three objects it would be music , gifts, and a message. I say music because despite the violent artist today, there are alot of artist and songs that are extremely relatable and sometime when you’re too bashful to say something directly sending a song is easier. I say gifts because im a gifter, and i love the way giving gifts make other people feel. Lastly , i say a message because, theres nothing like a nice thoughtful message expressing how you feel,

Prompt: Consider your experience reading The Color Purple (a fictional novel), Fences (a play/drama), and Wild (a nonfiction memoir). Which type of longer text did you enjoy the most, the novel, the play, or the memoir, and which did you find the most challenging? Explain your preference, describe what made that type of text more engaging or accessible for you, and reflect on how understanding your preference might influence how you approach future readings.

 Out of all the books read the book I probably enjoyed the most is the book wild. I say this because its a but more gen z and not hard to understand. Im more so into mental/emotional drama and this book was very emotional and raw. I think in the future if i had to read id read similar books because of the understanding level and even relating level.

Prompt: Even if you have not presented yet, how did participating as a listener, note-taker, or responder during the Interactive Oral help you prepare for your own discussion?

 My participation involved me listening to the speakers and answering the questions asked. I also participated in all the interactive assignments and actually took time to think about my answer despite them not being the actual teacher. I also saw how everyone else moved, and when it was my turn to present, did what j could to make everyone listening and participating feel as comfortable as me and my group could.
