8.16.22

 Today I learned how to comprehend a complex Text. For example, there was a poem called  “ The Negro Speaks Of Rivers” by Langston Hughes. At first, It was confusing because I really didn’t know what the poem was mainly about, but as I went back and read again, I understand it. The poem was very detailed and had a deep meaning applied. I really liked the poem because it represents the history of African Americans and what they’ve gone through for many years.

 Today in class, I was very upset. The teacher had given us tips on an essay regarding rhetorical analysis. During that time, I was zoning out.

Rhetorical appeals

 Today, we learned about the 3 rhetorical appeals ( logos, ethos, and pathos). Mr Rease proposed to the class the option of having a free day on Friday . This is how I use the 3 appeals:  Ethos- I am a student who plays a sport and all of my classes are accelerated. This shows that I have a heavy schedule. Pathos- 4 days of straight work is a lot for a student with a schedule like mine. And a lot of others have schedules just as full or even more full then mine. The whole thing is mentally draining for me and stress me out. Sometimes you just can’t handle that one more day and reach your breaking point Logos- For the record, there are students like me who have very complex schedules. Complex schedules meaning more stress and difficulty dealing with other classes.
