First Quarter



First quarter in AP English was very interesting. I loved that we had classroom discussions. I really learned a lot about writing on an AP level. I also learned how to analyze literature. I loved reading and analyzing poems as a class. I would’ve liked to practice on writing more as a class. I would love to improve on writing on an AP level and having an AP level mindset.

Understanding Themes and writing concepts

Today we were placed in groups so that we could do an activity on the novel “The Color Purple”. The activity was to write down themes, evidence, and claims portraying to the topic. This activity was actually helpful because it breaks down the themes and topics of the novel. It also helped because each one of us had to view others opinions and think outside of the box. It made me think deeper into the novel to find out more themes and evidences. This activity was fun. I enjoyed doing it. Tomorrow we take our EQT hopefully I pass it.

Poem and quiz day

Today we took a multiple choice quiz. I did well on it I felt as if it wasn’t difficult. After we took it and went over the correct answers in class it opened my eyes up a little more about process of elimination. I used process of elimination and it helped a lot. After we took a quiz we read a poem. The poem wasn’t hard but it was some lines I didn’t understand. As we analyzed it I understood it more. All in all I’m was a productive day in AP literature.

Reading the COLOR PURPLE

Today we finished some group work from last week. After the group work we continued to read “The Color Purple”. The novel is getting more and more interesting as we go. We are finding out a lot of things that we didn’t know in the beginning. Celie is becoming stronger and smarter as the novel progresses. I made this assumption because of how the author is progressing her writing in the letters. Celies letters are getting better for as grammar wise. I find that skill very interesting and difficult for the author but she made it work. Tomorrow we will continue reading and I hope it is even more better than today.
