 * **Final Reflection**

1. Briefly state what you are satirizing in your Satirical Comic Project: Bullying. 2. Quote or explain how you used at least five of the seven following literary devices in your Satirical Comic Project: ** 3. Reflection
 * Allusion: I'm known as Zeus of the school! Zeus can destroy you!
 * Hyperbole (exaggeration): He was hit as if he was on a ring.
 * Oxymoron: Now you are a nice bully.
 * Irony (sarcasm): When the mom asks how Jason's day went, he replies as "Oh, it was great...(sigh)" when he really didn't have a good day due to the bullying. Also, this whole comic can be irony, because the fat bully bullies others for being fat.
 * Understatement: When he sees the smiling class when he introduces himself, he says to himself “I'll probably make a new friend in a few years.”
 * What have you learned from your study of satire, including Candide and the Satirical Comic Project?
 * I've learned the whole concept of satire. I've heard it before, but never really knew the actual meaning. Through the Candide book, I learned what satire meant. In addition, through the Satirical Comic Project, I got used to using satire. Also, I learned how to use the literary devices in my own words according to the story line. On top of that, I learned how important making a draft was through the comic project, and learned how to space out the characters in the right format according to the box. Lastly, I learned that just changing one word from a quote would make the writing more interesting for the reader.
