What happened in 4th Block

Mr. Rease presented a talk about Native American culture today in fourth block at school. I learnt about origin stories, which are mythology, biblical allusions, and even creations of the world, humans, plants, and animals. I discovered that native American literature has themes such as harmony with the natural world, ancestors, animals, land, and even humans, and that everything is alive and serves a purpose. Also, in class, we read a story called Navajo Creation, which was about topics related to the Bible, such as angels and devils, and it was about Jack and the Beanstalk. Despite the fact that I learnt all of these fantastic stuff in fourth block today. I was quite exhausted and desperately wanted to sleep, but I couldn't since I had to pay attention in class even though I was dozing off a little bit

 Today in class, we finished reading Wild. It was up to us whether or not to read Chapter 7 in a group. I read independently and worked with certain classmates to finish the homework. Seven quotations from the chapter that connected to the title were required of us. We were able to locate 7 and note them down on our sheets. The chapter's title was The Only Girl in the Woods.

 We performed workbook work today. We examined two new rhetorical techniques. Allusion and analogy were the devices used. We did exercises for both, but we didn't have to turn them in because no one completed them. That is what we did for the entire session today.
