Stranger Than Fiction: Quiet Power

January 27, 2022 / Angel / 0 Comments

The notes I am taking on in my notebook is about a book called “Quiet Power” written by Susan Cain. The main topic about this book is “Introverts”. Introverts are people who are often quiet and does not express their thinkings and voices often. But the authors opinion in this book is introverts can also be very powerful and strong leaders without being very talkative. Introverts should also be proud of their personalities and find a comfortable way they like to express. Many people think introverts are not very powerful because they do not have the technique to express and share. The author proves in this book that introverts are not weak at may master other techniques way more than other people.

In this video, I have explained the theme of this book and also included a short summary of this book. I have also talked about how the author thinks and expressing it in one of the characters Starr which is the main character in this story. This book mainly talks about racism and I really recommend this book.

Am I a Renaissance Humanist?

October 11, 2021 / Angel / 0 Comments

I think I agree with some of these ideas about what Humanist thought back then. But I think the most important part is to let people have their own rights and share their opinions. People’s right is very important, everyone has different thoughts so it’s good to hear what they think and let them share. Also, achieve more things in daily life maybe can help a little more than going to the church everyday and praying the god.

“Lamb to the Slaughter” Found Poem

September 15, 2021 / Angel / 0 Comments

The poem I have created is based on the story “Lamb to the Slaughter” written by Roald Dahl in 1953. This poem I have created is an External Conflict which is Mary Maloney fighting against her husband. Here, Mary’s antagonist is her husband. Here is the evidence why Mary is going against her husband and causing the conflict. In the story, it talked about when Mary’s husband went home, he looked like he was very tired and really didn’t want to talk. And finally, when Mary asks what was going on, her husband said he wanted to divorce Mary. But he will of course give Mary money in the future. So, on this side, in paragraph 35, Mary’s husband doesn’t want to live with Mary anymore. On the other hand, in paragraph 7, Mary is always very happy to wait for her husband even though it very late because Mary loves to spend time with her husband. Also, she always cooks very special dinner for her husband every time and loved him very much. In my poem, to express how Mary felt when hearing the news that her husband doesn’t want to live with her anymore, I have carefully chosen the words in the story (adding to my poem) to express the characters feelings. For example, (paragraph 38) in my poem one part of it was “she walked across the room…. couldn’t feel her feet touching the floor.” I think this is a very good part of the poem because it is specifically explaining how stunned Mary was when she heard of this news and how sad also angry, she was. Also, one part of the poem specifically explaining the conflict is (paragraph 46) “So I’ve killed him” this part is the very climax of the story explaining how much Mary disagrees with her husband and fighting against him. I have also used picture to describe the specific scene of the climax part of the story. And at the end of my poem, I have added an open ending when Mary was trying to smile. I have added this to let the reader get interested and guess the ending.

Our Stories Make History

Click to read this book, made with Book Creator

https://read.bookcreator.com

1) A one or two sentence summary of the unit, “Our Stories Make History,” and the project you created.

All the projects was really fun and challenging. I learned a lot of thing during different types of research and reading, I have known more things that I didn’t know before.

2) Explain how you organized your project and why.

I put the picture collage with the six word memoir because they were kind of together and then, I posted the timeline event. I also put the noodletools citations and the articles together. And the other pages were the other projects that we had to include.

3) How might this primary source be useful to a historian, or even future 6th graders, in the future? What might they learn about/from your experience?

Maybe in the research, they could know more about the coronavirus and how dangerous it was, and learn more about the eLaerning that we had done during this time. The articles could help about learning the coronavirus. The projects will let them know a little more too.

4) What do you think went well for you in this unit? (What are you most proud of?)

I think that the noodle citations was first a little challenging but at last I knew how to do it and I have learned how to use different kind of things, I had more experience on things. And I learned a lot of things during the research and different kind of reading. I think that some projects that I have done in my notebook was good too.

5) What did you find challenging within this unit?

Sometimes different sites didn’t work for me and that was pretty challenging too because I had to do them in another way and it was kind of difficult. And sometimes the research was kind of challenging, it took time but at last, I have learned a lot of things that I didn’t know before.
