   Dear Mr. Sanderson,
I believe B. C Rain High School should have a drama class. Having a drama class gives students an opportunity to play different characters from different perspectives. Along with this, they can gain inspiration and motivation from some of the characters they portray. This would also give students who are aspiring to become actors/actresses an opportunity to put something on their resume to impress colleges and agencies. This could also be beneficial to the school by getting recognized and receiving grants for the students great work.   
   This course will also be about developing character, confidence, and the understanding of different viewpoints. This class will consist of analyzing scripts from different time periods. Drama class also prepares individuals to work in a team-work oriented workplace. Students will also learn how to memorize and recite monologues, learn to improvise, self-awareness, and self-discipline. This class will also allow students to be openly creative through characters and writing. Ultimately, having a drama class will lead to an outlet where students go to escape reality.

Tired of Seeing C's

Today in class, we finished reading The Wife Bath's Tale. I found it intriguing because I knew in the end what would happen, but I found that there was a deeper meaning to what actually happened. I figured that the old woman would become beautiful in some way, but not through domimance. I admired this short story because of how well written it was and how shined a light on women having power of men. How it is not that bad. Afterwards, we took a short quiz on the story. I was very upset with the grade on it, I feel that I work hard to achieve what I want. For some reason, my multiple choice grades are not improving. I believe it I'd because when it comes to test, I have really bad anxiety. I second guess myself a lot. I am going to put more effort into my testing skills and hopefully improve. My goal is to make an A in the class for the whole semester.

From Effort to Improvement

Today in class we took a prose multiple choice quiz taken from a previous AP Literature test. When I first began to read, I figured it be a easy read. The only thing was that the vocabulary made the read difficult. After the quiz was over, I felt pretty confident. Honestly, I wasn't upset because I felt more comfortable while taking the test. I put effort towards improving on multiple choice questions by watching strategy videos as well as being more confident when taking the test. I'm so happy that I'm seeing an improvement.

Improvement=Inspiration

Today was a productive day! We went and checked our books from the library for our senior project as well as practice multiple choice. Even though I did make a C on the quiz, I was still happy with the fact that I see improvement. Not so much with the grade, but how smoothly the test went. It seemed easier as I navigated through the test. I was not so tensed and afraid of putting the wrong answer. I am more confident in my testing skills! It can only get better from here!
