Grace's English Blog

 Today in class we openly discussed the questions we answered yesterday. We talked if what was written in the passage is accurate to now in day, and it does but of course not to everyone. It was Intersting listening to my classmates say there response. Then we started reading "The Yellow Paper", seems like its about a women who is going through postpartum depression. While her husband and brother don't believe she has a serious problem. So far it seems intersting the author does a I would say a good job bringing in detail so that the reader can visualize each scenorio. 

 Today in class we answered discuss questions about the Passage we read yesterday. About what author was trying to get across, if times have changed. I said that times have changed especially at the factor that now women aren't expected to stay home with the kids, how now theres been an increase on on men staying home with the kids doing the "dutys" of what a house wife would do. Class today was pretty chill, the questions were intersting I think. 

 Today in class we read an article what Cultural Feminism is, with 4 key points. Then we read a short Passage by Judy Brady, "I want a wife". At First I was a bit confused not sure understanding the passage, but after some of my classmates, I started to understand that it talks about how a "wife" has a sorts of maid on what a wife should do. How a wife should be available to do things for a "Husband". Which a agree but to a certian point, there was a part saying how a wife should write up papers when the Husband is to tired. I wouldn't do that, I'd perhaps say to take a break for a bit and get back to the work later, but never do it. Aswell as picking up after the kids and such, not alone did that women bring them into this world the Male or Husband had to take part with it. So the husband has many things aswell to do with children as the wife does. Class was very intersting today. 

 Today in class we worked missing or late work and trying to turn in the questions of the kids who made there journey to school. As well Mr.Rease made the class think that we had an Assement over the video with 40 something questions, Though I didn't fall for it because by now he tells us ahead of time when we do have an Assement to take. 

 Today in class we watched a video about 4 kids in other countries, on How they make there way to school every day. Solome was from kenya she and her brother would travel 2 hours to make it home. Zahira was from morocco, she would walk a while then later meet up with her friends. Then they would all continue to walk to the city and from there hitch a ride from someone. Carlos is from Argentina, he has a little sister, he seems to helps his parents with farm work and to make his way to school he rides a horse along with his sister. I found it sweet on how the second time his sister asks to lead the horse he says okay but not to mention it to their mother. Lastly three siblings from india. One of them being born differently. There was a part in there journey where they got stucj between some water and the youngest one was whining to the older one, on why they were going through that path. Then just before entering the school the younger one fixes his brother hair. Which I found sweet...

 Today in class we had to write about how we get to school, if there are any potential dangers. Then a couple of fact of other countries. Having to write about my journey to school compared to my parents, is honestly way easy and safer. I'm assuming that in the video that the class will watch tomorrow will be on kids from the countries we had know some facts about, how they make there way to school. Class was pretty chill today. 

 Today in class we wrote down new vovabulary words. Not really knowing there were so many intersting words that start with F. They do all kinda sound similar. How ferret means searching for something and not just the animal. It was pretty chill today, Most of my time was taken up from writing the words in my notebook.
