Why is the choice to serve leftover Chinese food significant in “Lunch”? How could the author have made a more culturally meaningful choice for her grandmother? Use the text to support your answer. Then reflect on a time when you realized you could have done something more meaningful for someone else.

 Today we worked on the assignment we had . Today I learned that at times we will have to face rude and selfish people who is a wannabe but instead you gotta be the bigger person and focus on your goals . It could have more meaning because maybe in her cultural is more than just that . They wanna help those who don’t have lunch to eat and instead of throwing the leftovers to trash she prefers to give to people who need it maybe she was taught that way from her grandma . 

Write about a time when you realized that your perception of a particular food was based on a stereotype. Explain what the food was, what you originally believed about it, and where that belief came from. Then describe how your perspective changed after experiencing or learning more about the food. Be sure to include specific details about the moment your thinking shifted and what you learned from that experience.

 Today we finished on our projects. I learned how people can face difficult situations but still put a smile on their faces  and show the best of theirselves . I believed before that carne asada was only for parties but no it’s a tradition of Mexican doing that food for family for welcoming have a good time enjoying food . 

Today, we continued our discussion about culture and food. What is one dish from your culture that is a must-have as a representation of your culture? Identify the dish and explain what it is and why it is significant.

 Today we continued to work on our assignment about food culture . Today I learned on how to behave better to do better in life and know the people I hang with. Tamales is a must have because it represents of they would make them back in Mexico the time and effort and love they put in them . 

Food is often tied to memory and emotion. Describe a meaningful memory connected to a meal or dish. Analyze how that experience shaped your understanding of family, culture, or belonging.

 Today we finished our essay . Today I learned  that sometimes trying to put your trust into someone isn’t always the right move and always be aware of your surroundings never leave your guard down. A found that would remind me of culture and family out be una carne  asada fest with guacamole r, Mexican rice, nopales, and jalapeño wrapped with bacon and cheese inside. These are one of the best meals we would do to celebrate a birthday or anything else. Brings a lot of members and how my family and me would all enjoy . 

How did the writing process (brainstorming, drafting, revising, proofreading, and finalizing) shape the strength of the final essay, and what was learned about your personal strengths and areas for growth as a writer?

 We started working on our essay for our test . Today I learned what factors influence human population size . I feel like brainstorming helped me a lot honestly. Like I managed stabilize a little bit more to be honest. I still have a lot to learn I’m not very proud on not finishing my essay but I feel like I can do better with brainstorming more on the day before. 

Why is drafting an essential step in the writing process rather than going straight to a final version? Use your own experience from this essay to explain how drafting improved (or revealed weaknesses in) your thinking.

 Today we started practicing on our draft and learning how to do it . I also learned how things can flip overnight and you should always be prepared no matter the situation. Drafting is a process of an essay because it helps you annotate and edit things down that need more improvement. This helps to make your final draft better . It helps improve and practice for your final draft . 

Reflect on your writing process for essays. Which part of writing an essay do you struggle with the most (for example: developing a thesis, organizing ideas, finding strong evidence, writing introductions, or explaining your analysis)? Which parts of essay writing do you feel most confident about? Explain why you feel strong in those areas and what specifically makes the challenging part difficult for you. Include at least one goal for how you plan to improve your essay writing skills.

 Today we worked on our evidence sheet .today I learned that being alone can change you a lot and how you view things. The parts I struggle with would be developing a thesis statement and how to form an introduction . I struggle because I forget it’s three parts for the thesis statement. I found it easy when we have to give our claim and evidence to back it up . I feel like I don’t struggle as much when I already have the evidence written down . I plan to improve on knowing how to form the introduction and how to be able to style it. 

As we move toward the end of the semester, what are your top three college choices right now? Identify the colleges and explain why you are attracted to each one. Even if college is not currently on your radar, you must still respond to the question and explain your thinking.

 Today we worked on quotes and our claims. Today I learned to show more actions then just claiming a word . It would be piedmont college or ink tech college or Georgia state . Piedmont because they have really good courses with welding the career I wanna do and it really interest me . Ink tech because that’s a good school also for being an electrician manager which could also be a good experience. Georgia state because they have pediatricians courses that I also have in mind and it’s a really good school for it . 

During brainstorming, one idea usually stands out. What is the most interesting or strongest idea you came up with for your essay, and what made you choose it over the others?

 Today we worked choosing our own prompt and create our new cluster. Today I learned how people can love you or be by your side and still wanna stab you in the back .The strongest idea I came up with was searching for meaning. I chose this one out of all of them because it stands out a lot for what the purpose of a journey truly is. 

After completing the assignments on making college affordable and finding the best college fit, what is one thing you learned that you did not know before? Why do you think this information is important for seniors to understand?

 Today we worked on common lit . Today I learned that working hard makes you realize how much you can improve in such a little amount of time . I think a thing I learned seeing the viewpoint in person of a college . I feel like this is important because it matters the size and location . The school’s culture matter because it’s going to be the environment you are going to be around with while attending college. 

Writing is a process, and the first draft is rarely perfect. Strong writers improve their work through revision. After reviewing and revising your literary argument paragraph, what changes did you make to strengthen your writing?

 Today we finish answering some questions on canvas and worked on our essay. Today I learned how artificial intelligence is getting so much power of technology that teachers can’t tell weather it’s human of technology work , which is mind blowing how things can get out of hand . Some things I would change is the grammar . Another thing is remove words that aren’t needed in my paragraph . I would go over it and make sure it makes sense. 

Today we discussed why academic writing must reflect your own thinking and understanding rather than relying on artificial intelligence to generate your ideas. After learning about the expectations for authentic writing, reflect on why it is important for students to write essays in their own words.

 Today we started working on our theme and our claim and body paragraphs . I learned how sometimes getting out of your zone can show growth in yourself. I think it’s important to use your own words because if young people use artificial intelligence we can’t really express or read the writers feelings . We need creativity of human doing the work not a computer that knows to do the work but not in a way as humans can comprehend at moments . It better to read a persons mind then computer technology. 

: Today we focused on constructing a strong literary argument paragraph about Wild and whether discomfort is necessary for meaningful personal growth. After working through the claim-evidence-analysis structure, explain which part of the paragraph was most challenging for you and why. Do you find it more difficult to create an arguable claim or to move beyond summary in your analysis?

 Today we worked on body paragraph first page . Today I also learned how being good pays off when not even looking for it . Finish g the claim was a bit challenging ,but after I understood the message of Cheryl’s growth I was able to comprehend . Another thing that I struggled through this layout and brainstorm for this essay I found it difficult to find evidence to suppose my body piece . 

Reflect on your experiences with essay writing. What aspects of writing essays do you find most engaging or challenging? Discuss your personal strengths as a writer as well as specific areas where you experience difficulty or would like to improve. Support your reflection with clear examples from your own writing experiences.

 Today we worked on an assignment . Today I learned how sometimes we have to change for the beneficial of our own health weather it’s mental or physical. I’m okay on doing essays they are a bit struggling because i get stuck with writing down a theme . For example I also struggle on having enough evidence to support my claim or having enough sentence to explain it.
