Prompt: Consider a film that portrays your culture. Reflect on how accurately your culture is represented and the potential impacts of this portrayal

 One film that portrays my culture is Coco. It shows Mexican traditions like Día de los Muertos in a respectful and beautiful way. The music, family values, and visuals felt very real and familiar. It helps people understand and appreciate our culture more, which is important.

Today in class we presented our group projects about African American stereotypes in film. My group talked about how certain characters are shown in movies. We also watched other groups present their projects. It was interesting to see all the different examples people found.

I had a game today and it was intense. We ended up going to penalties after a tough match. Everyone was nervous, but we stayed focused. We won in penalties and it felt amazing.

Prompt: Describe a time when someone’s words had a lasting impact on you.

  Prompt Response:   When my teacher told me, "You’re stronger than you think," it stuck with me. It made me believe in myself during tough times. Those words still push me to keep going. Summary: Today was a digital learning day so we didn't have school. Mr. Rease assigned us discussion questions for letters 51-55 on the book The Color Purple. Pretty much it for today Reflection:  Today I didn't think it was going to snow but it did in the afternoon. It looked cool at first but then it got worse. The roads were covered in black ice and it became very dangerous for people to drive. My friend couldn't make it home so he had to come over to my house. Overall the snow was fun but it was very dangerous. I wish we could go back to school.
