 Today during American LIT class we learned and took notes about "Reading with a Purpose." The main point I interpreted from the lesson was that you need to stay focused while reading. Some examples to this are to ask questions, re-read, and to reflect after reading. Another point is that purpose is everything, you can't get anything from a text if you don't know what you're looking for. After the lesson, we read an example piece of text and interpreted it differently based on the purpose we were given. Overall, it was a good day.

Write about something you can't deny

 Something that I cannot deny is my habit to collect things. I still can make space for new things because when I grow out of the current collection, I usually get rid of/give away. For example; card decks, stuffed animals, blankets, and more. I love collecting things because it gives me a hobby that is hard to grow out of. This is because I can always make room for more.

In class today we picked off where we left off on the poem by Robert Frost yesterday. We were given a rubric/list that had information for 7 different paragraphs. Each paragraph was about something different, but we had to state our opinion at the end of most of the paragraphs. The most interesting paragraphs to me were the beginning and end because of the opening statements and closing statements. I think that these statements are both good hooks and summaries that can give you a really good idea about what the essay is about.
