Shyanne is an example of Interpersonal. I know that by she is always thinking about others. I don't think there is a person Shyanne can not work with or get along with. I am an example of Intrapersonal. I am very good at keeping to myself. Im not saying I'm shy because you can ask any of my friends.
Sophie Biyoya Ciardulli is the main character in the book, “Endangered”, by Eliot Schrefer. She is the daughter of Florence Biyoya, who is Congolese, and an Italian-American dad. Her mother had always thought of protecting bonobos as her top duty in life, so it was no surprise when she chose staying in Congo to develop her bonobo sanctuary rather than returning to the U.S. with her husband and daughter, after Sophie’s dad is transferred to Miami, Florida by his company for a job. Sophie attends school in America, but spends summers with her mother. Sophie had always been angry and hurt by the fact that her mother was the reason her parents divorced, but when she meets Otto, she transitions slowly in opinion and grows in acceptance of her mother’s

She’s the Queen of Sass, Annabeth Chase, an individualistic, clever, and fierce 12 year-old girl. Not just any girl but, a demigod, the daughter of Athena, goddess of wisdom and battle strategy. At the age of seven she ran away from her abusive father Fredrick Chase and wicked stepmother. (no this will not be a cinderella story) Later on she finds others like her who live not in a house but a camp that becomes known as home to many of the campers there. Camp Half-Blood is a place where demigods can train for quests that keep us mortals in a safe world away from the monsters within. As you can guess from her mother's history, Annabeth is incredibly wise in both real life situations and battle strategy.

The tree Melinda is assigned in art class symbolizes her and how she changes dramatically, for better or worse, throughout the book. In the near beginning Melinda draws trees that have been struck by lighting, the trees are dark, broken down and weary to symbolize how Melinda is feeling at this point. A great example of this is when Melinda says “For a solid week, ever since the pep rally, I’ve been painting watercolors of trees that have been hit by lightning. I try to paint them so they are nearly dead, but not totally. Mr. Freeman doesn’t say a word to me about them. He just raises his eyebrow. One picture is so dark you can barely see the tree at all” (Anderson 30). This symbolizes how she is going through a period in her life where she
The California gold rush January 24 1848 was a very interesting time to be alive. In 1848 James Marshall was walking along the the side of the river of his job site where he was building a factory to turn logs into planks, he turned around to the site, but on the corner of his eye he saw something shiny in the water he picked up the shiny pea and realized it was
From reading the stimulus material given I saw a relationship between the disappearance of language and technological advancements. In the Self Portrait Along the Borderline Between Mexico and the United States by Frida Khalo a painting that shows the differences between Mexico and America in the 1900s, there appears to be a difference of culture between America and Mexico. America is more modern, as Mexico is more classic. America’s modernization is shown in the different factories in the background, and Mexico’s classicism is shown through the ancient Mexican temple in the background. As stated in “Vanishing Voices”, written by Russ Rymer, “As modern inventions like cars enters their world, the Seris tend to adapt their language rather than import Spanish words. Erica Barnett uses an abandoned car as a hothouse to grow mangroves to replenish an estuary” (21). Rymer is stating that with new technologies, people need to adapt. I believe that not only do people need to adapt, but also governments need to be more accustomed to advances in technology. With the introduction of the Internet many governments need to change. This change would come through passing different laws which would censor the Internet and in doing so, limit freedom of speech, because this is widely controversial in the US. I began to look at why this is so controversial. According to Andrea Leadsom, a Conservative Member of Parliament for South Northamptonshire, the Internet should be censored for the kids.
I would say that synesthesia plays a part of the book because all the characters are constantly changing. Linda's personality was one of the very obvious things that changed. I would say with kelly her big one was her relationship with Linda. She was always in a sense comparing herself with Linda. There friendship was also a huge rollercoaster. The synesthesia that Kelly has is when Wade and her had sex and she got pregnant. This made Kelly pretty nervous around Linda. You could tell that there was some tension between them, and that Linda wasn't very fond of what happened. A quote that I thought displayed how Linda felt was when she talked about a letter. She wasn’t thrilled about the news and had a sassy tone. She said, “Thanks to Kelly's
