Multi lit: Which cultural food presentation taught you something new or surprised you the most? Explain what you learned about that culture and its food traditions. How did the presentations help you better understand the importance of food in shaping cultural identity, preserving traditions, and bringing people together?

 I think that the presentation that made me ask a lot of questions or wanted me to ask a lot of questions was Jack’s presentation his was pretty detailed and I like the way he presented it. I wanted to ask him about I mean not about everything but more maybe about the foods that I still haven’t tried because either I’m scared to find out how they’re gonna taste and I might like them and I wanted to ask him what part of the country he was like I know he’s from like the south but like is it normal for Southerners to call their grandma‘s Mima‘s? but I didn’t ask a question because I was scared that I was gonna be rude.


Reflection: I should had ask him the question but we were short on time so I didn’t asked him.


Summary: jack is the goat

AM LIT: Talk about a time when you had to write a poem, whether it was for an assignment, event, or special occasion. What was the writing process like for you, and were you proud of the finished product?

Reading it aloud at the gathering was nerve-wracking, but seeing my friend’s eyes well up (and hearing a few chuckles at the inside jokes) made all the wrestling with words completely worth it. It taught me that poetry isn't about using the biggest or most sophisticated words; it’s just about capturing a genuine human emotion and holding it still for a moment. Summary:  The story tracks the creation of a  free-verse farewell poem  written for a relocating friend. It shows the shift from a forced rhyming structure to an honest, memory-driven piece. The final reading successfully connected with the audience by prioritizing  genuine emotion over perfection . Reflection:  This process proves that  authenticity matters more than rigid rules  in creative writing. Letting go of a strict poetic structure allowed for a much deeper, more relatable human connection. Ultimately, the piece succeeded because it focused on making someone feel  truly seen and val...

MULTI LIT: Today, we started our discussion about culture and food. What is one dish from your culture that is a must-have as a representation of your culture? Identify the dish and explain what it is and why it is significant.

For my culture dish I choose  paella , which is this huge rice dish from Valencia, Spain.  It’s basically made with saffron rice and traditionally cooked outside over an open fire in a massive flat pan called a paellera. It’s a perfect symbol for us because it’s historic and also represents how our culture is all about family and sharing. Summary: Paella actually started out as just a cheap, basic lunch for farmers who threw in whatever they had like short-grain rice, chicken, rabbit, and veggies. Everything cooks together in one pan until the rice turns bright yellow from the saffron. Reflection: I chose  paella  because it’s honestly way more than just a random meal, it’s like a whole Sunday event for families kinda like a cook-out here in America. Everyone just hangs out and catches up for hours while it cooks, and then you usually eat it right out of the pan together. It just makes me feel really connected to my roots.
