Binder Check

1. Yes, I have fairly organized my binder. I divided everything into places such as SAT packets, book work, and others.

2. In this years classes I think we are more into books since we take up more time to read in class and tae time to discuss it. Similar things from last years English classes are new words we learn and have hot seat which isn't very fun for me cause I can't remember the words that well.

3. I have learned a lot of new words this year that I never knew.

4. Do In Class.

5. I can be a more successful in class by taking the time to do the work to the best of my knowledge and learn form the mistakes I make.

Bradbury's writing style

Ray Bradbury's writing style is very unique. He uses many different visuals to help picture the events that are going on in fine detail. He also uses many metaphors too. His way of using symbols is very interesting because you would never imagine a salamander as a symbol, but a mirror yes because a mirror is used a lot of reflect back on you and your life.
