2 Use some dialogie
3 There wasn't a literary device that caught my eye
4 The part that stands out most is when the convention was ending and they stood up and shouting.

Helen keller story

1.       It was an interesting point of view.

2.       How she learned without sight or sound.

3.       She didn’t feel sorrow until she learned words.

4.       It didn’t change my outlook because I have heard/read this before

5.       As the cool stream gushed over one hand,

The afternoon sun penetrated the mass of honeysuckle that covered the porch,

That living word awakened my soul, gave it light, hope, joy, set it free!

6.       The narrative puts emotion into the story. It’s important to give someone’s personal perspective to show how the situation made them feel and how it affected them.

7.       List shown below

-my first cross country race or varsity race

-times I have gotten injured in a sport

Where I am from

I am from running

from sore legs to burning lungs

I am from pushing myself

farther than I believe I can go

I am from cold early morning workouts,

seeing my breath, frost forming in my hair

I am from the burning hot days,

when running feels like swimming,

drenched in sweat that drips off of me

and the longer I ran the faster it goes

I am from the group runs

and workouts on the track

I am from legs pounding on the ground

mile after mile

I am from racing and competitive spirit,

which pushes me to do my best to win

I am from those times

when I pass people in the final stretch,

which was one of the best feelings there is,

and the defeat after losing to a team or personal rival

I am from when running was a joke in middle school
to when it's higly competitive in high school
I am from the chubby kid that started running in 7th grade

1 Some english courses I enjoy but some I don't like. It really all depends on the teacher and the content of the course.

2 Short story, comic strip, list, and science fiction.

3 Comic strip, short story, and science fiction.

5 A

6 I enjoy class discussions because i enjoy debating.

7 I lead the discussion as long as i have good knowledge of the topic.

8 I play hockey and run distance for track and cross country.

9 Over the weekend I had a hockey tournament hosted by our team we play a game friday, saturday, and two on sunday the later of which was the championship since we won all of our previous game. During the championship game we were down 2 to nothing but came back to tie it. Later olentangy orange pulled ahead 4-2 and we only score one so the final score was 4-3 olentangy. Then monday i went ice skating and out to lunch.

10 In general I learn more and get more out of class when it's a fun environment.
