Prompt: Miss Emily’s house once represented pride and tradition, but over time it became a symbol of decay and isolation. Describe a place that holds deep memories for you—positive or negative—and explain how it reflects part of who you are or how you’ve changed over time.

 Prompt Response: A place that holds deep memories for me is my old house that my family used to live in. We moved out of that house almost 2 years ago but I miss it very much. I lived in that house for basically almost my whole life. It was my home back when I was a disobedient child and not the best son. It was my home when I started school until the 9th grade. It was the home I grew up in and improved as a person from my past.

Summary: We read "A Rose for Emily" and worked on writable.

Reflection: The story is interesting because of the mysterious tone.

Describe a time you felt completely lost.

 Prompt Response: When I was a child, I went to a grocery store with my mom to get groceries for the week. After a while, I had wandered off as any child would and soon after I had realized, that I had lost my mom. It was a scary experience because there were a lot of people there and as an unsupervised kid, I did not feel safe. I ran through the aisles one by one, in hopes of finding my mom. The store felt like a maze, turns everywhere and every turn made me more lost. As my hope dwindled and I believed my mother had left, I make my way to the checkout area, and I see her. Relief ran through my body as I was able to find my mom and I rushed over to her and gave her a hug. Summary: Today in class we presented our powerpoints for "The Jealous Father." Reflection: The powerpoints informed me on many things such as the theme of "The Jealous Father" and also showed me what can be improved on future powerpoints.

Prompt: Thanksgiving is a time for giving thanks and spending time with family over a nice dinner. Write about your most unforgettable meal.

 Prompt Response: My most unforgettable meal was the time I got McDonalds and the patty was raw. It was late afternoon and I went with my dad to get McDonalds for my family. When I arrived home and began to eat my quarter pounder, I realized something. I was two bites in and I realized the patty was really pink and that the burger was raw.

Prompt: Write about a time when you realized you needed to look out for yourself in a silly or harmless situation—maybe dodging a pop quiz, escaping a group chat argument, or remembering at the last second to submit an assignment. How did choosing wisely make your life easier?

 Prompt Response: It was late at night and I was about to head to bed, when I remembered that I had a quiz the next day in ap statistics. I was deciding if whether I should study or sleep because I felt sort of confident in the material. I decided to study before going to bed and I'm glad I did because the quiz was tough. However, the study session helped a bunch with the quiz. I was able to get an A on the quiz because of decision to study for the quiz instead of not and just going in blind. Summary: I was not here on the block day but the class finished reading the story "The Life You Save May Be Your Own." Reflection: I was not here this day and do not know how the story ended.
