Ayat’s English blog

I was absent, for junior activities. Our last blog, ever. Had a wonderful year with Mr. Rease.

 Today we finished up our questions from yesterday. That's really all we did, and a few people had to do their final. I took the AP exam, so I didn't have to take it.

      Today we watched an episode from "Black Mirror" called nosedive. The episode was about like a futuristic point in life, where people had something in their eye that they could use to rate people on their phone. These ratings were determined by your status, how much money you have, and how you treat people. I think that's a pretty stupid way to live life, but it's just a show.

 Today we finished watching inception. The movie was pretty good. The movie ended with a cliff hanger. Mendy and I were talking in the back yesterday, so we missed a little bit of it. We pretty much got caught up by the end though.

      Today we continued the movie Interception. I almost finished my notes, I only have one more square left.

      Today we started the movie interception. The movie so far has been really good. I want to go home and finish it on my own, but Mr. Rease said do NOT do that. So I’ll just wait until Monday. While we’re watching the movie, we’re taking notes of important things that we see or hear. So far I’ve done 5 facts and we need 12. The movie is super long, which is why I wasn’t focused on finishing a lot of the notes.

     Today we finished watching the movie, Psycho. We turned in the questions that we answered. We talked about it after, and the moral was not to cross the relationship that a mother and a son have. I don’t understand why Norman would kill his mom, and not just kill the boyfriend, and then pose as her to kill other people, but that was the movie.

      Today we watched a movie, called Phsyco. We answered a few questions about it. In the beginning it was pretty boring, but towards the middle it was getting more interesting.

      Today I took my last AP exam of the year. I have a final tomorrow, sadly. In class we didn’t do anything really. Mr. Rease just let us rest, because I’m sure he knows that we’re pretty tired and overworked.

      Today we did some reviewing and practicing for our AP exam. The exam is tomorrow, and I’m  feeling pretty confident about it. The people taking the exam don’t have a final.

     Today we played a game. Somebody sat at the front of the class, and read questions from the cards. For each question you answered, you were given 2 points. By the end of the game, Mendy won with 46 points, and I came after her with 36 points. These are getting put toward a grade.

Today we did more practice for our exam. I didn’t feel very well, so I was mostly being quiet.

     Today we practiced our multiple choice. Mr. Rease walked us through all of the questions. We used the process of elimination to determine what answer we would use. I don’t think it was very hard. You only need to get half of the questions correct to be in a good spot with your test.

      Today in class we did a practice FRQ. It was sort of difficult to get it started, but once I got started, it was pretty easy. The passage was about grit, which is how well someone can hold up to achieve their goal.
