= Final Reflection = -Please complete the following on your Satirical Comic Project Page (SCP). -Post at the top of the page.

1. Briefly state what you are satirizing in your Satirical Comic Project: The idea of the afterschool policy 2. Quote or explain how you used at least five of the seven following literary devices in your Satirical Comic Project: 3. Reflection Through Candide I learned the difference between a satire and a parody. Finally, the contrast is clear to me. I also found that there's a lot of ways to write things. Normally when I write fiction stories in my free time the only literary devices I used seem to be things like simile or personification but through this project I think I am capable of adding so much more. = Satirical Comic Project Proposal =
 * Allusion: The board describes themselves as ZEUS!
 * Hyperbole (exaggeration): exaggeration of the consequences of the after school policy. "It's KILLING ME"
 * Oxymoron:
 * Irony (sarcasm): the title + "OF COURSE we are more safe outside of school we could like jump in front of car and that would be REALLY safe" + "I can't even go down the stairs because i'm afraid i'm gonna bash my head"
 * Parody:
 * Understatement: "Noone will listen to our complaints. Not even in a million years"
 * Juxtaposition: the picture comparison between the old times and the good times
 * What have you learned from your study of satire, including Candide and the Satirical Comic Project?
