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: Back in 9th grade, in biology class, the word nomenclature was used. We were learning about the naming system for species and the binomial nomenclature was used. It did help me understand the word nomenclature because binomial means two names and since we used a diagram like thing, I associated nomenclature with science diagrams and such. That association is close to the definition of nomenclature which is a naming device for art or science.

Summary: We learned more words and worked on an assignment for them.

Reflection: I have heard a lot of these words but some of them are new. I'm sure I'll use some of these new words later in life.

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. I threw it away and just ate the fries; however I did unfortunately not feel well afterwards. Summary: We did a pop quiz on the story "The Life You May Save May Be Your Own."

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.
