  1. this is my english semester final portfolio of the what
  2. I think are the main things that I learned this semester
  3. starting off with deeper analyzation.
  4. One valuable thing that I learned this semester is deeper analyzation.
  5. This helped me get a deeper understanding of
  6. anything that I'm looking at in literature,
  7. such as poem says a lot more than what you think you're looking at,
  8. analyzing every stanza of the poem can help you piece
  9. things together and understand what a poet is writing.
  10. This isn't in just literature, you can also analyze our
  11. looking at what the artist is doing with colors and shading and placement of the art.
  12. Art is telling a story without words and that is how you can read it.
  13. Here are some examples of some analyzation that I have done this
  14. semester here is the first thing that we did this semester.
  15. The analyzation of the story, the ledge
  16. and here's the most recent thing
  17. that I have analyzed this semester is a black man's burden.
  18. How this can relate to the real world. You don't judge a book by its cover.
  19. There's always something underneath like what we did with the iceberg project
  20. where you only see the top of the iceberg until you know, until you see
  21. what is at the bottom. There's a lot more than what you see
  22. and you get a deeper, better understanding
  23. and you look for hidden messages
  24. and
  25. anything there is a hidden message.
  26. Another thing that I learned is identifying
  27. literary elements similar to an idealization.
  28. You're breaking down a story and piecing it
  29. together to try and get a deeper understanding
  30. of the story and you build relations by
  31. doing this with the characters and with the settings
  32. and you get more into the book and um you understand more of the book,
  33. what are the literary elements,
  34. the literary elements?
  35. We can start with clot, there's plot diagram which has five things
  36. on it.
  37. There's the exposition which is the introduction of
  38. the characters and the setting and kind of like
  39. the habitat of where maybe the character is living or anything like that
  40. in the society and the community.
  41. The next is rising action where you get introduced to maybe
  42. foreshadowing of the antagonist or maybe you get introduced to the antagonists
  43. and then the climax which you are,
  44. you're kind of
  45. reaching the top of the introduction, you know,
  46. basically all the characters and
  47. maybe you know the problem by then. But or also it could just be the foreshadowing
  48. the falling action which is where maybe something bad happens to the protagonist of
  49. this story and they need to do something to fix it to help themselves.
  50. And then the resolution is where everything worked out
  51. uh kind of maybe the way they wanted it to or maybe not the way that you wanted it to,
  52. but it's where they come to an end of the story,
  53. the next is setting, there's five senses of setting which is touch, taste, sound,
  54. smell, and sight.
  55. Now we have characterization.
  56. There are four types of characterization which there are a static character,
  57. a dynamic character, a flat character and Iran character.
  58. Now we have the point of views,
  59. there's five types of point of views starting with first person
  60. and second person and then we have a third person limited,
  61. third person objective and third person omniscient.
  62. And then now we have the conflict,
  63. there is four types of conflict and they kind of explain themselves by
  64. the names of man versus self, man versus man,
  65. man versus nature and then man versus society.
  66. Now we have the theme which is
  67. kind of like maybe
  68. what the story was about or maybe like the lesson of the story or the moral
  69. of the story that kind of like explains the story and kind of like one sentence
  70. um how this can relate to the real world is the you
  71. get a deeper grasp of the story and the explanation of the story
  72. and you can build relations with this and you
  73. can add meaning to a conversation that you're having.
  74. Maybe
  75. if you're talking to someone and you can like
  76. maybe think and peace their stories together like this.
  77. Now here are some examples of some plot diagrams that I have done for
  78. some of the stories that we have read like the ledge and then the other
  79. ah
  80. the other literary element questions that I have done
  81. last we have criticism which is kind of like a judgment on literature and judgment on
  82. the real world problems and giving feedback to
  83. usually do better at what you're doing.
  84. Such as like when
  85. uh we did um
  86. the
  87. when we did
  88. the article review of female criticism and
  89. and uh historical criticism and stuff like that.
  90. Now that is the end of, oh wait,
  91. here's some experience of criticism that can relate to the real world.
  92. You are almost always getting judged and
  93. Ukrit and you need criticism to get better.
  94. And you can also learn to criticize to give other people
  95. a valid feedback as in what they may be doing wrong.
  96. It doesn't always have to be mean. In fact, it shouldn't be mean.
  97. It's helping them get better,
  98. not putting them down
  99. and that is it for my portfolio.
  100. Adios chow.
