Farah Ahmedi, Ernesto, And Bilbo Baggins

On the other hand the “public” language was the language that he felt threatened by. He says that he can only hear sounds people make while speaking English instead of the actual words. He remembers that those words sounded like ,"So many words were still unknown to me that when the butcher or the lady at the drugstore said something, exotic polysyllabic sounds would bloom in the midst of their sentences. Often speech in public seemed to me very loud, booming with confidence"(449) . To him whenever someone spoke English it was a complete blur .It was like he was living in a different world different to what he was used to. It wasn't until he realised that everyone around him aside from his family spoke the English language .Once he started learning English, he slowly began to realize that he needed to learn it in order to fit in society. Receiving bilingual education taught him that it was a must to learn both Spanish language and English language in order fit into the American society. And with that came the losse of his closeness to his family.

The curriculum for English-Spanish Learners (ESL) or English-Language Learners, was created to assist students who do not speak any or little English. Angela Valenzuela describes in her article, “Subtractive Schooling, Caring Relations, and Social Capital in the Schooling of U.S.~Mexican Youth,” that

In the chapters 1-5 Bilbo Baggins gave into the Took side of his family. The two sides that he has are very different from each other. On the tookish side he goes on many adventure. The baggins side has more of a chill side than adventurous side. The tookish side one of the ways was were when he went on the adventure with the took side of his family. Another way was by when he had tried to rescue the dwarves from the trolls.The last way was when he had fought Gollum and he tricked him. These are just a few ways of how Bilbo had fell into the took side of his family.

To undertake a mission means to set a goal for yourself means to set a goal for yourself to accomplish. People are determined and work hard to reach their goals. For example, Farah Ahmedi climbed a mountain on a prosthetic leg to reach freedom. Aengus traveled long and hard to find love. Rikki-Tikki-Tavi was determined on killing the snakes and saving his new family. These characters had different reasons for pursuing their goals and doing what they did. Ahmedi wanted freedom, Rikki-Tikki wanted to protect his new family, and Aengus was set on finding love; however all three shared the determination to accomplish their goal.

When undertaking a mission, a person is often driven to reach a goal or achievement. Occasionally, people commit themselves to a task that may seem impossible, but complete it anyways. The force that drives people like Farah Ahmedi, who escaped her war torn country on a prosthetic leg, Aengus who spent his entire life searching for a girl who he fell for, or John Steinbeck who traveled all throughout the U.S. in a camper with nothing but his dog, is much more powerful than any magic spell or super power. Using determination, you can push through hardships and undertake missions just like Ahmedi, Steinbeck, and Aengus.

What drives us to undertake a mission? A difficult journey can have fear, danger, and taking risks. What makes a character overcome a mission? The three attributes that can drive us to undertake a mission are loyalty, determination, or instinct.

The challenges he faced during his transition from the Spanish Language to English. The challenges you will face with starting a new routine or “Life change” to fit into today’s society. Even though he had his family to share his language with, He was almost trapped in the American society with not being able to communicate. Getting the awareness out about his views on Bilingual Education and share his story on how it affected him in the beginning. That even by teaching children in their home language sounds like a great idea, you are just taking away from their ability to learn. He had something special by being able to understand Spanish after losing the ability to speak it. But that just gave him something over his classmates. I do believe he achieves his point. Education is a huge part of our lives. Yes, believing a child will do better in school using

What drives people to undertake missions that aren't even planned to be a mission. If someone asked to go on a mission and it was your best friend you wouldn't say no you'd say yes. Something Bilbo did to help his leader was he went and hit the guy that was going to cut off the leaders head. He wasn't apart of the army until one day these 13 army members just came in his house and they left a note. Bilbo went searching for them and he found them in the forest. Bilbo didn't even have a sword to battle with. That night they had to wake up because the other army was trying to kill them all. Bilbo beat his mission by working for his goal.

I chose Bilbo Baggins, Walt and Farah Ahmed as my characters because they all go on missions for good. They help people because it sometimes helps themselves.

“Heroes are made by the path they choose, not the powers they are graced with”

People throughout the world have different problems they face everyday. Everyone has to have any type of motivation in order to succeed. For example, Pearce from Call of the Klondike saw tonos of miners carrying gold, so he and many other people set an adventure to the Klondike. While Aengus was finding true love, Annie was trying to tend her family; these three people all shared a desire and determination.

Throughout stories, character always have a development and change. In the book “the Hobbit” by J.R.R. Tolkien, Bilbo who is the main protagonist who goes through phases of metamorphosis in the book. Biblo initially started as a daunty character, then transitioned to become a brave and adventurous character by the end of the book. Bilbo develops into a brave and adventurous character through the beginning of the book, Bilbo clearly is a simple, routine-loving hobbit who wants nothing more than to live his quiet life of his own home. He does not want to go on adventures or risk missing his next meal.

Many people have distinct personalities, whether they are adventurous, or don’t enjoy getting out of their comfort zone. This can be somewhat annoying, whether you want your friend to do something and he won’t do it, or if your friends are always gone on some lengthy adventure. In The Hobbit, Bilbo Baggins is usually a person who loves to stay indoors all the time, until the dwarves and Gandalf came along. Bilbo then begins to show his Tookish side (the more adventurous side of himself and his family) much more frequently. This side has shone through Bilbo when the dwarves sang their song, when moon letters were discovered on the map, and when with his life on the line, he and gollum played the riddle game.

Do you ever feel like you are only one half of a person but every once in awhile you explode, and the other half takes over? In the novel the Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien, when the protagonist Bilbo Baggins, the Hobbit gets recruited by a party of dwarves to go on a life threatening journey. When the Hobbit hears about this his ‘respectful’ Baggins side declines, but s soon as the dwarves describe this quest his Adventures Tookish side takes control. It may be hard to believe but everyone has times that feel like another person is inside of you and waiting for the right moment to take over. These sides are completely different but it's no fun just having one side without the other and those small bursts. I think

There are many people who have taken on near to impossible missions, and somehow found a way to accomplish them and these are 3 examples. In the story “The Other Side of the Sky”, Farah Ahmedi wanted to leave her war-torn country and get across the border into Pakistan. Stanley Pearce joined the Klondike Gold Rush to strike it rich in the story “The Klondike Gold Rush”. Seth Sorensen persevered to stop the opening of the demon prison and save the world in the book Keys to the demon Prison. All three of these people had different reasons to undertake their missions, however, all three wanted to have a better life for themselves or others.
