Mercy’s English Blog

 Today we presented our projects again and I learned more about the different Latin American countries. I did my project on the Dominican Republic and I found it interesting that most Latin American countries practice catholicism as their main religion. I am excited to move onto a new unit in English focusing on different Latin American, authors and texts. 

 Today we presented some slideshows about different countries and cultures. I learned about different statistics and foods from different cultures. I enjoyed learning about it all. 

 Sick October 9-13

 Fall break and block day

 Today in class we completed our essays. I wrote about how Troys lack of commitment to the fence building aligns with his lack of commitment towards his marriage with Rose.

 I was absent on Tuesday at home sick with a fever

 Today we started brainstorming our ideas for our essay assignment on Wednesday. I am going to choose to talk about the symbol of the fence in the play. How Troy be Rose’s opinions and attitude toward the fence can reflect deeper thoughts and motives.
