Jaquavious's English Blog

 Today was a very chill day. Since we're done with the milestones for American Lit we were in class talking or doing make-up work. Next week will be the very last week we have for this semester and it's been fun. After today I'll no longer have to write blog posts as well.

 Today we finished our EoC exams American Lit. I was able to complete everything for both sections of the exam. In my opinion the exam was very easy to do, considering the fact that I'm in 11th grade. I believe I did a good job on all 3 sections of the exam so I can't wait to see what I got on the EoC exams.

 Today we started the EoC for American Lit. I believe i did well on the test. I was able to complete the multiple choice questions, constructed response, and I finished writing the entire essay.

Today we did a review for the EoC. The review was mainly everything we learned last week. After the review we watched a TED talk about channelling stress. After the TED talk we went to lunch. Now we basically have a free period, since there's no more work to do.

 Today we learned how to write an informational essay for the EoC. We read from articles about student loans. Today we just wrote about the stuff that we'll need to add into thew essay. I think we're going to be writing the essay tomorrow. We also found out that on the first day we'll be able to choose between an argumentative and informational essay.

 Today we learned how to write a narrative essay for the EoC. We read a poem and had to write a narrative about it. We were the narrator's of our stories. All these stories had to revolve about what happenned after a kid went Baltimore and some random kid called the narrator a nigger. According to Mr. Rease the best way to write a narrative essay is writing it about a poem.
