Describe a real moment in your life that felt like the beginning of a powerful story. Tell what happened, and why it felt like a turning point in your life?

Prompt Response:

A moment in my life that felt like the beginning of a powerful story was when I wrestled someone for the first time.

I wrestled the experienced wrestler and another new wrestler and got beat up pretty bad but it was some of the most fun I had ever had and I stuck with it and I am continuing to improve my skills.

Summary:

Today we worked on making a rhetorical analysis. We learned about how to make a claim, evidence, and commentary in our analysis.

Reflection:

I learned how many sentences each section of a rhetorical analysis has to have.
