Today, we took an assessment on a segment of "The Yellow Wallpaper." I did not do very well on it. 

I learned how to better take a reading comprehension assessment. I was misled on a couple of questions and I thought I had a pretty solid case to plead when I found out they were wrong, but Mr. Rease's explanations helped me realize I just need to really get into the details and trust the process of elimination on each question. It impacted me because I thought I had done pretty well on it, but I think I got a 60% or below. With the knowledge I obtained, I plan to do much better on the next reading comprehension assessment that I take.

I liked that it wasn't a very work-filled day. The assessment was only 10 questions long, which is both a blessing and a curse. It's probably more of a curse than a blessing because that means each question I get wrong brings my score down an entire letter grade, which is what I disliked about the assessment. I feel like even a 15-question assessment would be miles more forgiving than a 10-question one.

I am feeling great today. I am getting lots of work done and I filled out a "missing assignments" sheet. I need to get the college project stuff from earlier in the year done asap, and this sheet will help me a lot because it is a lot more descriptive and helpful than the simple notebook paper with checkmarks that I was using before.

Today we had a substitute teacher and I came in pretty late, but we were given an assignment about the Vietnam war to do in Commonlit, which I've still yet to start on.  I learned more rules about level three lockdowns because we had to do a drill during this class period. I liked this class, but I wish we didn't have to sit in the corner for so long for the lockdown. I would have got much more work done. Jesus is God! I love enjoying God.

 Today we started on a presentation about "A Devoted Son." We got a lot of work done in the long class. I had to battle my OCD because the fonts were all over the place from the theme that I set, and many other formatting things were inconsistent in the presentation while/after we worked on it. I have a problem with taking over too much in group projects because my OCD so strongly wants everything to be my orderly way. I think that I've somewhat overcome this. I kept the weird non-theme-fitting font, but I had to at least make every slide's font the same. I hope we get a good grade on this assignment! O Lord Jesus, how I need You today. Lord, don't let me forget about Your sweet name and Your life-giving Spirit that I can breathe in simply by calling out to You.

 Today I came in a bit late and we were going over two poems, and then answered questions about them on canvas for the rest of class. I wish I came in earlier, because the first poem was called "The Lamb" and it was pretty Biblical; it was about the Lord Jesus but it was very hard to follow. I don't think God made me with a poetry-keen brain, which I am completely fine with. I had some great fellowship with Mr. Rease about the poems and in general about God's predestination and such.  This is the last assignment of the day that I need to get done and it's 3:09; school is about to end. I love doing my schoolwork here because I can go home and enjoy the Lord without Him reminding me to take care of my human responsibilities, because I already have! The Lord has really been getting me through this day; I got 7-ish hours of sleep and I can't wait to take a power nap when I get home. Thank You Lord Jesus, for Your so easily-accessible presence, a simple two words a...
