What I Learned Second Quarter Second quarter was a great quarter.We have read and learned a lot.Not only have we learned a lot, but we have learned how to apply it all to our lives.We focused mostly on the three rules of persuasion.The three rules are: ethos, pathos, and logos.Each of these things is important in writing an essay.They make the paper come alive.Secon quarter has taugh me a lot. We read a lot of great stories and speeches.A few of my favorite readings were, A Christmas Carol, the “I have a dream” speech by Martin Luther King, and also Night.A Christmas Carol is an intense story about a man who was given a second chance, and was able to save a life while doing so.The “I have a dream” speech is very real.That was a very sad time for the black people, it is amazing to see the changes now from then.The book Night, was very emotional.I cannot even imagine what these people had to go through in the Haulacaust.We have read many more stories, and have gained so muchknowledge. Many of the things we have done in this last quarter, are very appliable to life.Not only can we apply it to life, but it is going to help us with our transition to college.It has been very useful for us to do many grammar reveiws, it is a great reminder for us in helping the way we write and speak.It is the worst thing when you say something in the wrong form, then you are emberrassed.I is great to have to confidence that I now have because of these teachings. The three rules of persuasion has made a great impact on my writing.Ethos really makes the character of the speaker come through.If the character is not credible, then none believes anything.Pathos is the emotion in the writing.An example is when Scrooge was reminded of his past.Logos is the logic in the story.It is the facts, and rational thinking.These three rules have changed how I read and write. Second quarter has been my favorite so far.I am very excited to see what comes in the next two quarters.This is such a great class to come to.I love the way that everything has been taught so far.It is such a good environment where we can learn a lot and have fun at the same time.Once again, I am very excited to see what comes next!
