Reflection
Quarter 1 of the AP literature course was very understandable. Although I was not present during the first weeks of class due to the schedule changes it was easy to catch on. The first assignment I was asked to do in the beginning of class was to TPCASTT poems. Now I’ve read poems before but never in this way because I learned to analyze and break down each of the poems. I actually understood them much more and as we went over it in class it was even more helpful. During first quarter I realized that this class was more discussion oriented which helps when reading a story that you might not understand. Even if you have understood the story you may get another point of view that causes you to think of the story in another perspective.
After reading poems we moved on to what was the first story in the biggest smallest book ever if that makes since. The Bedford book had many stories but one in particular was one of my favorite plays, Oedipus The King. I liked this play because of the irony and it really was a play that you wouldn’t mind reading again. The next class we had an assessment which was the best assessment I believe I have ever taken. I was elated when I found out that this wasn’t a multiple choice test where the smallest details that you didn’t really pay attention to would be on it. It was actually on what we had previously wrote and expounding on it. Not only that but you get feedback and clarification from your classmates. In conclusion I have to say that quarter one was understandable, actually easy and exciting. I think I might like this and I can’t wait to see what’s in store for second quarter.
