Reflection: Tell what makes a particular character/setting appeal to you. In the story Kate appeals to me. She is a very warm hearted teen that would do anything to help her friends. When Shep was getting blamed for Grant 's death even though it wasn 't him she was there to come up with information to prove that it wasn 't Shep and that the boys were lying to get the blame away from them. She even risked and lost her job just so he wouldn 't go to prison with Grant 's murder on his record. She has been doing newspaper and photography for a long time and the fact that she put that all aside and risked it just for Shep really shows a lot about how she really is and how nice and caring she is. Also she risked hers and her mom 's job by talking and seeing Shep. She really loved working with her mom and she said it was her favorite thing to do. She lost and accepted that she lost her job just to make sure it wasn 't Sheps fault. If her mom would have lost her job they would have probably went poor and they would not be able to afford or buy anything but yet she still did it for someone else. Entry #2 Reflection:Figure out the ways a character changed and what caused the changes. Kate changes in the story a lot. When Shep first told her that he was the one texting her the whole time when she thought it was Grant she was so mad and so upset over it. She cried for days and she even ignored Shep every time she saw him. Then all of a sudden in the book after like 5 days of scolding

When the text states “ ‘Sal you’re so courageous.
Although Kate cares about other peoples’ feelings she refuses to express her own. The traits that Kate possesses makes her the person she is; somebody who cannot express how they feel.
During the middle of the story she began to have a change of heart. She started to hang out with her aunt more and realized it takes a lot of effort. During this time of self discovery she noticed small details about her friends and family. But by the end of the book she starts to see things from others views to give her insight to how others might see things.
She absolutely became a better person who knows what is good and that nothing is more important than to marry your true love. She is a dynamic character because she goes from being strict about her wedding to not complaining when she marries without the things and man she really desired in her childhood. Everybody expected her to do everything she said, and that is why people should not say something they will not do. The author effectively created a dynamic character that shifted from boasting too much to not complaining at all about her unanticipated
She is curious and caring for people, but she cares excessively about them and ultimately causes them emotional pain. Inevitably, after finding a harsh letter addressed to herself, she has a change in attitude. Readers can infer that she has the ability to change because she is kind hearted and respectable to the townspeople.

Based on what I’ve read so far, Kate is a selfish woman who has a despicable reputation within Padua. Through her anger tantrums, degradation of men, and her desire for the world to revolve around her, this portrays a conflicting character in my mind who is contaminated with an overload of unhappiness and jealousy. As I was reading, there were many scenarios in which the personality of Kate was deliberately exhibited. For example, when Kate had Bianca’s hands tied and was questioning her and then Baptista entered and ended the harassment. Kate mentioned: “What, will you not suffer me?
One character that really got shown to me is Via because she is a loving and caring sister and August is very lucky to have a sister like that. R.J Palacio’s style in the novel helps you to relate to the story by writing about a book that nobody would write about. R.J Palacio was somewhere and she saw a young girl or
When readers begin a novel, what intrigues them into continuing? It could be the plot, or a unique setting. More often than not, what most appeals to readers is the connection they have with a character. There has to be someone for whom they can “root” for. These characters are not always perfect; in fact, it sometimes appears as if the more infallible the character, the more the reader can identify with him or her.
She used her intelligence to save her friends’ lives, and without her, the story would have been completely different. I saw myself in this character, and that validated my intelligence and made me proud of who I was. Everyone deserves a character, and a moment like that.
Her changing helped her end up with her son when she was killed just like
I am writing this letter to inform you on the progress that I made from having you last semester in Modern II and how I continue to grow and develop as a dancer in Modern III. During the last semester of Modern II, I set three goals for myself that included getting stronger with inversions, working on increasing my stamina, and taking risks during class. From last semester to now, I personally feel that as a whole, my goals that I set for myself have come a long way. In addition to working in the studio extra hours and going to the gym here and there to better myself, I have focused inside of the classroom on writing down feedback that is given to me from peers as well as my professor. Writing down the feedback has helped me when going into the next class and focusing on the corrections I have already got as well as looking at things that I set for myself.
The reflection journal’s objective will be a continued reflection on my experience with my chosen community. This journal will also touch on the area of strengths and areas for growth for myself as well as the community. Lastly, I will share about my group’s Community Sector Discussion.

There are a number of steps I plan on taking while working on my critical analysis essay. The first thing I am going to do is read my essay again. I will be looking for ways to summarize or paraphrase the key points that I feel the author addressed. I am also going to try to think of more personal examples that I can incorporate to back up my thesis. I know that I also have some sections that in my opinion were redundant so I will be extracting those as well.
This growth would not have been as impressive if the reader had not undergone all of the different struggles that Kathy faced throughout her life and witnessed the great leap in character that occurred at the
Reflective Essay I chose to interview Donna because I knew she grew up on a farm and I grew up in a big city. This made her culturally different than me. In my essay I wrote about how it only took 1 year of college to become a teacher. Now I have to go to a minimum of 4 years of college.
