 A time I saw or heard a vocabulary word from lesson two outside of the classroom was when I listened to the song Metamorphosis by Playboi Carti. I first learned the word "metamorphosis" when I was in elementary school, and I learned about how different animals morphed, like how caterpillars turn into butterflies and how tadpoles turn into frogs. When I listened to the song, Playboi Carti was rapping about how he "morphed" his swag. I was able to connect his message with the meaning I learned about metamorphosis in the past. Today in class, we worked on vocabulary lesson two and our rockiples project.

 This is my cultural identity mask. On it, I included things that represent me! It was fun to learn about my other classmates today as well.

A real-life situation in which jealousy negatively affected a relationship I experienced is one time I asked my friend to go to the boardwalk with me, and she told me she couldn't go. The next day, I saw that she had gone without me with another friend. I'm not going to lie, I did feel a little jealous, but in the end, it was a misunderstanding. She had already had plans to go with someone else and couldn't go with me that day. Today, I learned about a folklore story "The Jealous Father" when a man suspected his son was having a affair with one of his wives due to marks on her body and tried to get rid of him but in the end the son never had an affair and the father tried to get rid of his son over a false lie.  Today, we started a project. My group is responsible for the moral aspect of the story.

 Today in class, we learned about 3 rhetorical devices. The devices we learned were hyperbole, understatement, and litotes. Hyperbole: Today's lesson was so revolutionary, my brain doubled in size! Understatement: We spent a few minutes looking at words today.  Litotes: Learning about rhetorical devices today wasn't exactly a waste of time.
