While nothing I learned in this unit was necessarily new, it did help to reflect back on the techniques that exist already and understand how they can work together. Definitely examining how the character’s function together will help my analysis. The setting and how the character’s interact with it is also very good to examine. …

S.S Thing
The APA paper was fun and I learned much about the possible careers that I may go into. While paper unfortunately required me to use the dreaded “APA”, the amount I learned about writing and science careers was insightful. Though an interesting fact was the incredibly low job satisfaction among lab scientists. The Senior Shadow …
Hamlet
Hamlet was an incredibly fun unit. The story was compelling and fun to analyze. Overall I very much enjoyed the Hamlet unit, even though ole’ Hammy boy has very poor decision making skills. Even though the story was very morbid, it was also a very interesting look into the human psyche. Many of my classmates …

Semester narrative
Kite Runner is easily my favorite as it has the most complex and compelling story. It also has a better flow than the stop start narratives of the rest of the books and pieces. It is also written in a dialect that I understand and can read easier than the rest. I connect with Kite …
Ap Prep
Nothing is really new to me. Most of these strategies I have learned from middle school English teachers. However the refresher was nice. Most of the strategies we covered are common sense. Starring the lines that have questions that relate to them is by far the most helpful. I am a fan of the word …
Fences/Oedipus Rex
Upon reflection the two plays have very little in common. Oedipus has to do with a man who seeks justice for the killer of the king only to find out that he did it and married his mom. Fences is about a man who cheats on his wife and can’t get his mind out of …
