"I Too" poem

Today we read a poem by Langston Hughes in which the speaker reflects on their place in society. After reading the poem, I learned that it is wrong to make false accusations about others. Getting to know someone can reveal much about a person and provide a better understanding of their cultural background. I liked this lesson because the poem can be interpreted in various ways by different people, including yourself. As we read the poem, I struggled to determine symbolism the speaker used. Today I feel great! Although I am still adjusting to the teaching style of my new orchestra teacher, I am learning several new pieces for an upcoming event. After this period, I have to stay after school for marching band practice, even though I don't really want to go.

The American Dream

Today we filled out a chart how the descisions the characters made had an affect on their future/dreams.

After reading The Tyger by William Blake, take a moment to reflect on the idea of creation. What do you believe is the most beautiful creation in the world—natural or man-made—and why? Describe it in detail and explain what makes it so awe-inspiring to you

 I think the most beautiful thing in the world is the ocean. It really beautiful to what it may seem as just water but the ocean carries life. Sometimes simple things like water, we tend to be grateful for it. I remember the first time I went to the beach, I immediately fell in love with it. The small fish by the shore, the seashells in the sand, and the seagulls flying above my head. In the night small crabs come out, it was a little scary to me, but I realized not only fish live in the water but also those that get around by crawling. Today we read over a new poem called The Tiger which is the sepaker admiring the creation of the tiger. Today I feel ok and have to study for my calc test that I have tomorrow.
