Describe a time you felt completely lost.

 Prompt Response: One time when I felt completely lost was during a trip to Hilton Head. It was a cloudy day, too cold to go to the beach, so my friends and I decided to go on a bike ride around the island. We biked around for a while till we found a dirt bike path that led into the woods. Us being us, we decided to follow the bike path and see where it took us. It ended up being a blast with cool hills and sharp turns, but as we exited the trail, we were in the middle of an open field with only telephone poles around us. We dropped our bikes immediately and stood in shock. We had no Idea where we were. I thought that we would never make it back. We ended up following the telephone polls, and eventually, we made it out with no harm.


Summary: Today, all we did was present our project about the Symbols in the Origin Myth, the jealous father.


Reflection: I learned about different themes and different parts of the detting that I never thought of so deeply when I first read the myth.

Prompt: Think about the vocabulary words from Lesson Two. Write about a time you saw or heard one of these words outside of the classroom — maybe in a movie, song, social media post, or book. Describe how it was used and whether the context helped you understand the word better.

 Prompt Response: I remember hearing the word brigand in a movie I watched a while ago. The characters mentioned it while they were traveling somewhere that seemed a little unsafe. They didn’t clearly explain what a brigand was, but the way they said it made it sound like someone to avoid. The scene showed them looking around nervously, which made me think the person was trouble. Even without a definition, I could tell it meant someone who might cause harm. Hearing the word used in that moment helped me understand it better than just reading it in class. Summary: We completed new vocabulary. Reflection: I learned new vocabulary words.

Prompt: Describe a time that you had an encounter with a homeless person, either directly or indirectly. What did you think and how did it make you feel?

  Prompt Response:   One time, I was walking downtown with my friend when we passed a man sitting on the sidewalk with a cardboard sign. He looked tired and cold, and I could tell he had been out there for a while. He wasn’t asking for much, just a little help, but my first instinct was to feel a bit uneasy. At the same time, I felt bad for him because it’s hard to imagine being in that position, having to rely on strangers for anything. It made me realize how quickly things can change for anyone, and it left me thinking about how we often overlook people who are struggling, even if they’re right in front of us. Summary: We read a new part of a story.  Reflection:  I learned a new part of the story.

Prompt: Write about something you’ve always been curious about.

 Prompt Response: Something I've always been curious about is living in space. Growing up, I would wonder how astronauts sleep, eat, and even walk around in space since it lacks gravity. I've watched them floating around in the space station on videos, and it just doesn't seem real. I imagine looking out the window and seeing Earth from above, and it would probably feel both amazing and a little scary. I’ve always thought about how different life would be up there and what it would feel like to leave everything behind and explore the unknown. It’s something that has always stuck in my mind and made me want to learn more about space. Summary: We completed a paragraph to argue for our claim that we made on Wednesday using evidence and reasoning. Reflection: I learned how to format a argumentative paragraph.
