Vocab Words Assignment Monday 8/26/24

 Today, we began an assignment in class where we made cards for vocabulary words, that included the words, definition, picture, and an explanation for the picture. I learned the meaning to a few new words including "reverie" meaning a daydream and "sulked" meaning to be mad in silence. I liked this lesson because I feel it give me a way to retain this information better by drawing a picture and explaining it. Today, I'm feeling prepared for the week, and to get through it, until Friday.

Friday 4/25/25 - How do you find time to enjoy your day, even when you have a lot going on? Write about at least three specific things you do to enjoy small moments throughout your day.

I find time to enjoy my day with doing simple things that can alleviate any negative feelings.

I was born on April 14, 2007. From what I've been told I relate more to "Infant Joy" when I was born. My parents wanted to have a good amount of children, and were overjoyed to welcome another child. My older siblings would tell me how they would compete for my attention when I was an infant, and that I tended to gravitate towards my eldest brother. I was born about two weeks after my family had moved from downtown Atlanta, and I was the fourth child to be born and third boy. My birth symbolized a new start for my parents, as we lived the first child to come after we moved into our new home, and got adjusted to the new settings.  Summary: Today we read and analyzed two sets of poems by William Blake. The poems being "Infant Joy" and "Infant Sorrow" & "The Tyger" and "The Lamb." After analyzing all 4 poems, we were assigned to work on a one-pager for the rest of our time in class. I decided to make mine on "The Tyger" a...
