Jan. 28, 2013

F.O.A. (Bellwork) Think of something that changed your life and write that event down on a sheet of paper. Also write down why it changed your life. Also write down something you think about often. This can be an internal struggle. You don’t have to mention this to the class.

Reflection What does reflection mean?

Reflection A reflective poem is a reflection of one's state of mind using perhaps symbols and comparisons to objects and life scenarios in a poetic manner. Reflection is consideration of some subject matter, idea, or purpose

Reflection I am looking in a mirror, but all I can see is me, trying to be what I want to be instead of what I really am.

Emotional confliction which I had once fought, Was ever so close to subsiding, I thought. Personal steadiness which I had once sought Is something, I think, may never be caught. Carefully hiding internal confusion, I view my existence an intricate delusion. Wanting desperately to reach the unreachable conclusion That will alleviate my mind of this constant seclusion Societal misconception gives way to social blunder, That distorted reality feeds as storm clouds to thunder. Hopeful perception can not put asunder, This malevolent spell from which I am under. Mental meandering and silent stress Are among main causes of my digress. Hindering abilities that I possess, Where is my exit from this unsettling mess?

I look in the mirror, What do I see? A broken girl gazes out at me. I’m not perfect, I will never be, The girl that people want me to be. I’m unique, Don’t call me a geek, I sing, I draw, I like to speak. I see myself inside, The girl I always hide. I need a friend, I want the pain to end. Reflections lie, The girl inside dies. Love me, I need peace. Help me, I need a friend.

Man In The Mirror Listen to this Michael Jackson song and write one paragraph in which you tell me why this song is/is not a good example of a reflection. A paragraph is 4-6 sentences.

Assignment Write a reflection that is a minimum of eight lines and a maximum of 20 lines. This is for a grade. If you don’t finish in class, it’s homework.
