Which learning method do you enjoy the most? Class discussions, worksheet work, or hands-on activities. Select one and tell why

 Prompt Response: The learning method that I enjoy the most is hands on activities. To me hands on activities are the most engaging, memorable, and educational forms of teaching someone something. While class discussions can be engaging, they can be intimidating at times for certain people. Additionally, other forms of learning such as lectures and worksheets often lead me to disengage and zone out during the class. When I am given something that is mandatory, and I actually see the difference of my work, I find it the easiest to recall, and the most fun in the moment. When a learning method is not only fun but actually leads to long term learning it is able to help me over the longest period of time.

Summary:  Today In class we looked an an example of a question that was on a past AP Lang test, and learned what the best way to plan for it and answer it is.

Reflection: I can use what I learned In class to properly plan out and answer the AP Lang argumentative paragraph section. This is relevant because it will help me time manage and not be surprised when I see what is on the AP test.

Consider the following statement: "We spend more time connecting online but less time connecting in person." Do you agree or disagree with this antithesis? Explain your perspective using personal experiences. Discuss how technology has influenced the way people communicate and build relationships. In your response, include at least one original example of antithesis.

  Prompt Response:  I dissagree with the statement " We spend more time connecting online but less time connecting in person."We spend more time connecting online but less time connecting in person." Personally I do not own any major social media, and am not active on any sites so for me all of my connections are in person connections. Whil yes technology affects the way I communicate by commodifying communication, it still feels less genuiene than in person connection, and therefore I seek out more inperson connection. I struggle to see how people feel such close connection when they are so far from someone.  Summary: Today in class we read about different rhetorical devices and practiced using them Reflection: I can use what I learned in class today to see and utilize rhetorical devices. This can make my arguments clearer and more concise and convincing.

Think about the word or phrase you find yourself using the most right now. What is it, what does it mean, and why has it become part of your everyday vocabulary? Explain when you typically use it and what your choice of this word or phrase might reveal about you.

  Prompt Response:  A word that I use the most is genuinely. This is an adverb that is used to express complete honesty. This word has become a part of my every day vocabulary because it is a good word when you want to exaggerate something, and make something important. However I have gotten so used to using it that I find it annoying, however I am unable to stop using it. I typically use it when I am trying to explain my feelings about something, and I use it to show when I truly do feel something. I am trying to use other words in place of genuinely. Summary:   Today in class we did a vocabulary assignment out of a textbook. Reflection:  I can use what I learned in class today to better my writing. Having more advanced writing will better my chances in life.

Write about a fear you have overcome.

  Prompt Response:  I have overcome my fear of the dark. When I was younger I was incredibly scared of the dark. I would run into my bed scared after turning off my lights, refuse to take out the trash at night, and not want to be alone in the dark. This fear would cause me constant anxiety whenever night would come. One day I decided that I had had enough so I decided that every time I had the urge to to run away from the dark into "safety" i would force myself to walk extra slow. This eventually conditioned me into staying calm in the dark, and now I am over my fear of the dark Summary: Today in class we went over notes about how to write with a better vocabulary. Reflection:  This can help my writing appear more professional. Having more professional writing can help improve my ap scores.
