Also the birds in both of these could be signs of either land/something very bad, and obviously the video showed that the birds are bad, and in the book the birds are giving us a warning.

This is like The Age Of Miracles because crazy unnatural things are happening in the story. In the story birds are dying because of a sickness and the gravity makes flying impossible.

Birds can be very symbolic to imagery in many different ways.]]> 2019-12-16 15:55:15 UTC https://padlet.com/schj/aznf0b9m80i6/wish/424585707 Jake Brand https://padlet.com/schj/aznf0b9m80i6/wish/424586328 How birds are symbolic to imagery: In the video clip the students go outside and then the ravens go and decide to attack them. This is like The Age Of Miracles because crazy supernatural things are happening just like the story. In the story birds are developing a sickness that is causing them to die out because of the gravity and the rotation of Earth slowing. Birds can be very symbolic to imagery in many different ways and stories.

WHAT BIRDS MEAN

I think that the contents of the video relates to the events of the novel so far because of birds showing us something. In the video birds are attacking the small kids, in the stories the birds are dying. I think in the video the birds represent pain because they brought pain into the kids while in the story the birds represent death because they are dying. In both of these stories birds are “Messengers”, trying to show us the reader what will happen. In conclusion I think that what is similar in both the video and the book is the birds sending us a message.

In movies, or novels animals can be symbolic in a way or a type of foreshadowing. The movie named “The Birds” relates to “The Age of Miracles” because something is happening to the birds in both novel and movie. They both show symbolism towards birds in both film and novel.  It shows that it is the end of the world and the birds are being symbolic towards that. In the novel, birds are dying that shows death or pain to people like in the movie to the students.

This clip from “The Birds” relates to the story age of miracles because birds are usually messengers. In the book the birds are messengers of a warning that something is going to happen. Since the birds first start to get sick they are warning the humans that they will get probably get the sickness. The birds dying and the earth slowing is also supernatural. In the movie the children getting attacked by hundreds of crows is also supernatural. The birds in the movie could be a message or warning that something is going to happen to the world.

This video relates to the events of the novel so far that in greek mythology they were messengers of gods and in the book ravens and other birds are sending a warning to the people because a lot of different types of birds including the raven has died by falling to the ground from high distance. In the birds the ravens change their behavior by attacking children and adults and in the Age Of Miracles people's behaviors and animals behavior is changing.  ]]> 2019-12-16 16:02:22 UTC https://padlet.com/schj/aznf0b9m80i6/wish/424589786 Krishelle Brown https://padlet.com/schj/aznf0b9m80i6/wish/424591229 The content of this video relates to the story we are reading because just like in the age of miracles the both of birds are doing stuff they wouldn't be doing in real life.  They are both acting different than a normal bird would act like. Both the Age of Miracles and the Birds are showing pain.In both books the birds are trying to tell us something or trying to send us a message.  In both supernatural things are happening with the birds dying and the earth’s rotation. The birds death is trying to tell us that we should be more careful.  In conclusion, the birds are trying to send us a message. 

]]> 2019-12-16 16:04:53 UTC https://padlet.com/schj/aznf0b9m80i6/wish/424591229 The Birds Are Coming... https://padlet.com/schj/aznf0b9m80i6/wish/424591489 In both of these works, there is one similarity between the two. They both portray birds as being the messenger of some evil force or something bad will coming for all of the planet. In the video, you see the birds are the black which can be associated with evil and, in cases, death. Also the birds attack the children, which is seen as a big offense and being evil. This shows the birds are trying to convey some message to the rest of the world, most likely evil. In the novel, the birds are not evil, but they bring words of caution. As seen in the book, more birds die on the streets showing this isn’t just a coincidence that all the birds keep dying. These deaths are trying to show us that we should be cautious, because something like that may happen to our characters next. In the end, both works show birds to be messengers of caution, or even messengers of evil.

The birds in the video act a lot like the birds in the novel because of their unusual behavior. The birds in the novel are dying and in the video they are attacking people. Birds are known as messengers and when they start acting strange it probably means that something bad is going to happen in the near future. In both the novel and the video the birds have this behavior  which probably means that bad things are going to happen in both stories.

In the novel birds die at an increased rate ever since in the slowing, in the film the birds harm people. Bird in the book seem to have to have some relationship to the slowing though not certain it seems that the the slowing was caused by humans and the birds death is a part of the cross fire. In the flim instead of the birds dying because of humans they seem to be doing the opposite by attacking the humans. Bird ares also know for being connected to a messenger, so when the bird act strangely it isn't a good sign in both the novel and flim the birds act in a strange way]]> 2019-12-16 17:33:30 UTC https://padlet.com/schj/aznf0b9m80i6/wish/424642881 Nathan C. https://padlet.com/schj/aznf0b9m80i6/wish/424643448 Birds on the hunt
This is relevant to the novel because the birds are acting weird in both the clip and the book. The bird act weird in the clip by attacking the kids who were trying to run away. In the book they are just dying and running into windows. Birds in the world now usually don't attack people unless defending themselves and they usually don't die in massive amounts in short periods of time. They do run into glass windows on occasion though. They are acting weird in both the book and the clip.]]> 2019-12-16 17:34:30 UTC https://padlet.com/schj/aznf0b9m80i6/wish/424643448 Eva Tosca https://padlet.com/schj/aznf0b9m80i6/wish/424644227 Alfred Hitchcock's "The Birds"  clip of the birds attacking the students relates to the novel because in both "The Birds" and "The Age of Miracles" birds are acting irregularly. In the novel birds are mysteriously dying, in the movie birds have become violent. Also, in "The Age of Miracles" and "The Birds" people have no idea as to why the birds are dying and cannot prove they are acting for any specific reason. ]]> 2019-12-16 17:35:57 UTC https://padlet.com/schj/aznf0b9m80i6/wish/424644227 Taylor Coxhead https://padlet.com/schj/aznf0b9m80i6/wish/424644452 SIMILARITIES
I think that the video clip and the novel are similar because they are both going through stressful events. For example, in the video the birds in the story are attacking the kids and in the novel the Earth's rotation has slowed. Also, the birds are in both plots and are both affected. In the story the birds are dying and cannot survive as an effect of the slowing. In the video the birds are attacking the people as they are trying to run to safety. ]]> 2019-12-16 17:36:22 UTC https://padlet.com/schj/aznf0b9m80i6/wish/424644452 They're back...... https://padlet.com/schj/aznf0b9m80i6/wish/424644711 The video of birds attacking students and the story, "The Age Of Miracles," relate becuase in both it shows how society is falling apart and people and things are turning on each other for unknown reasons, in one, gravity is affecting them, and in the other, their control is being angered. The students look scared and shocked just like mostly everyone in the book. This hows and proves that there is a change and  turn of events. What exactly caused these reactions from the birds is not known in the video, but it must be something led by a chain since such a powerful outbreak isn’t stopppable very easy.

The content of this video relates to the novel because it shows a group of people, completely confused on what is happening with no explanation, and the only thing the children can do is follow an authority. People are panicking and there is no where to go. For example, in The Age of Miracles, nobody has a clue on what is happening to the earth, and, there is no where to go or escape. The only thing people can do is follow the authority, who are the government and scientists, for updates and any chance for survival.]]> 2019-12-16 17:39:26 UTC https://padlet.com/schj/aznf0b9m80i6/wish/424646375 Elyse Wood https://padlet.com/schj/aznf0b9m80i6/wish/424646699 ITS THE END!!!!
This clip relates to what we have read so far in “Age of Miracles”  because this is an apocalyptic event just like in the book. In chapter 5 of “Age of Miracles”, the kids are all in class when suddenly the sky goes dark and every kid starts to worry. Eventually they all run out to a hill behind the school until the “eclipse” is over then they run in different directions just like the kids in the clip. Also, in  “Age of Miracles” the animals are acting differently and in the clip the birds are acting in an odd way as well. Also, when animals are acting strange you know something is up.
To conclude, both the birds and "Age of Miracles" are apocalyptic where children are frightened and animals are affected.

In “The Age of Miracles” we can also see the birds being affected by the slowing. In the clip the birds were attacking the people but in “The Age of Miracles” the birds are dying due to “Natural” causes (Well as natural as the causes get but what I meant is that they are not killing the birds at least I don’t think so). In both the video clip and “The Age of Miracles” the birds are being affected by something that is making them act a little differently.]]> 2019-12-16 17:40:28 UTC https://padlet.com/schj/aznf0b9m80i6/wish/424647018 Rehan Alibhai https://padlet.com/schj/aznf0b9m80i6/wish/424647079 The Unavoidable Threat

In the video clip we see birds attacking the students and teachers as they run. Everyone their is being affected by this just as shown in the novel. In the novel everyone is being affected by one change which is constant while in this video clip everyone is being affected by something as well. It may not be the same fear but it is the same general idea. Both are struggling in a fight against another concept.]]> 2019-12-16 17:40:34 UTC https://padlet.com/schj/aznf0b9m80i6/wish/424647079 Ryan Meltzer https://padlet.com/schj/aznf0b9m80i6/wish/424647620 THE END IS NEAR

The video can relate to the novel because the birds are doing something that would not actually happen. In the video the birds are attacking all of the children. In the novel the birds are dropping dead out from the sky. In real life birds would not attack you unless you start to attack them. Also, birds in real life would run into a window occasionally. In the video there must have been a outbreak of a disease for the birds or something else that made them do this. In the novel there was a disease for the birds that made them die. As you can see the novel relates to the video because there could have been an outbreak. ]]> 2019-12-16 17:41:36 UTC https://padlet.com/schj/aznf0b9m80i6/wish/424647620 Julian Herrera https://padlet.com/schj/aznf0b9m80i6/wish/424648027 Sixth  Sense

The movie “The Birds” and The Novel “Age Of Miracles” are relatable. These two things are  relatable because of the importance birds have in these two things. Birds are often known to have a sixth sense. When something bad is going to or is happening birds usually change their behavior. In the novel Age of Miracles the birds are falling from the sky unable to fly. In the trailer for The Birds you can see all the birds attacking the humans which is abnormal behavior for birds, this shows that something bad is going to happen.]]> 2019-12-16 17:42:20 UTC https://padlet.com/schj/aznf0b9m80i6/wish/424648027 Jorge Uribe https://padlet.com/schj/aznf0b9m80i6/wish/424648229 they are coming


The video and the novel The Age Of Miracles share similar concept because of the birds going crazy. Also there is the way the content was introduced in both it seemed like a regular day and then the weird changes came without any hints or warnings of what will happen. In the video it was the crows for some reason start attacking the people. In the novel The Age Of Miracles the birds start falling out of the sky without any warning this was going to happen like it the crows in the video.

The clip relates to what we have read in, “The Age of Miracles” because this was a world apocalyptic event like in the story. In the story,  at a time the children run to the hill behind the school because of the “eclipse”. In this case the “eclipse” is also the same chaotic event as the crows swarming and attacking the children and teacher. The students are scared and shocked just like mostly everyone in the novel. “The Birds” and “The Age of Miracles” are very similar in the case as the shock in everyone's emotions.

This video relates to the events in the novel because in both the video and the novel there is some sort of panic. In the novel, it is because of the slowing, but in the video, it is because the birds are attacking them. Also, in both the novel and the video, people mind their own business. What I mean by that is that in the novel, no one stands up for the right of the real timers, they just keep on living their lives normally, even though it is not right for the people that follow real time to be segregated from society. In the video, the teacher and the little girl are the only ones to stop to help the girl that fell. If they hadn’t helped her, she could have been killed by the birds. ]]> 2019-12-16 17:46:35 UTC https://padlet.com/schj/aznf0b9m80i6/wish/424650362 The Birds and the Slowing... https://padlet.com/schj/aznf0b9m80i6/wish/424722226 David T.

I think that in both stories there is some sort of panic. Whether it is because there are evil birds attacking people or maybe the earth's rotation has been slowed. The scene reveals a lot of panic made by the screaming and all of the hysteria that is going on. In the book, panic is achieved by having two factions (real and clock timers) collide and both are scared of what will happen next. The panic in the book is more contained within humans scared of a possible apocalypse happening and they are also scared because they do not know what is happening. The thing man fears most is the unknown... ]]> 2019-12-16 19:47:47 UTC https://padlet.com/schj/aznf0b9m80i6/wish/424722226 Marcelo Miranda https://padlet.com/schj/aznf0b9m80i6/wish/424722679 THE BIRDS LIKE THE SLOWING?

In the novel " The Age Of Miracles" once The slowing is introduced there is panic everywhere. Just like in "The Birds" when the teachers says they have to run they automatically feel a rush and or in some type of fear. In both plots they are also introduced to a problem yet they have to overcome it by changing their clock times or sleeping while the sun is out. Or like in  The Birds where they have to be quiet so they are not heard and then run for their life. Aside from those similarities they are both deep into some type of bird. In the novel "The Age of Miracles" birds start6 to die due to gravity. In 'The Bird" the crows start to viciously attack the students and the adults.]]> 2019-12-16 19:48:35 UTC https://padlet.com/schj/aznf0b9m80i6/wish/424722679 Jan Garcia https://padlet.com/schj/aznf0b9m80i6/wish/424723056 There's Nothing You Can Do..

The substance of this video identifies with the story we are perusing in light of the fact that simply like in the time of supernatural occurrences the both of winged creatures are doing stuff they wouldn't do, all things considered. They are both acting not quite the same as a typical winged animal would act like. Both the Age of Miracles and the Birds are indicating pain.In the two books the flying creatures are attempting to disclose to us something or attempting to send us a message. In both extraordinary things are going on with the winged creatures biting the dust and the world's revolution. The winged animals passing is attempting to disclose to us that we ought to be progressively cautious. All in all, the fowls are attempting to send us a message.]]> 2019-12-16 19:49:16 UTC https://padlet.com/schj/aznf0b9m80i6/wish/424723056 Natalia Nuila https://padlet.com/schj/aznf0b9m80i6/wish/424724821 What now?

This scene was very intense and it relates to The Age of Miracles in many ways. For example, one key point is the birds. The birds are going crazy and doing things they usually wouldn’t like in The Age of Miracles when the birds suddenly start dying. This also relates to the book because there is no explanation for why this is happening in the clip we saw. Another reason why it is like the book we are reading is because everybody is in a panic and everything is happening at the same time. This relates because people are doing crazy things and they are also scared and confused. They have no idea what to do now or what to do about it.

In the clip the birds were attacking the children but in “The Age of Miracles” the birds are dying due to “Natural” causes of the earth's rotation.  In both the video clip and "The Age of Miracles” the birds are being affected by something that is making them act a little differently.

In our book all the birds are dying and in the movie all the birds are attacking people. In both the movie and the book the birds are trying to send a message that something is going to happen in the future. In both, the birds are behaving in a supernatural way and are sending a message that something bad is going to happen in the future. Since they are acting this way that means that something bad will happen in the future for both the book and the movie.

The Birds is similar because everyone is going crazy and it is a mess. Also birds are coming down just like in the novel. It seems as if it is a normal day but weird things are happening and everyone is panicking. People are running away but the birds are still there with them, in the novel people think they can leave their city but they are still harmed the same. In addition, no one is thinking clearly like in the novel, kids and teachers are running instead of just hiding like they did at the end where the birds couldn’t get them, in the novel people are deny that the slowing is happening or don't think of their actions because they think they are going to die.]]> 2019-12-16 19:55:04 UTC https://padlet.com/schj/aznf0b9m80i6/wish/424726018 Oscar G. del Rey - The Change https://padlet.com/schj/aznf0b9m80i6/wish/424726176 The scene from The Birds is similar to The Age of Miracles for a few reasons. First, they both take place in a normal world that turns dystopian. Julia is living a normal life and then suddenly the slowing begins. The students are seen having a normal day at school when all of a sudden the birds turn demonic and try to kill them. Also, these stories could both be referred to as dystopian because the world seems normal at first but then there is a turn for the worst. In addition, there are rebels in both stories. In The Age of Miracles there is a divide between clock time and real time and in The Birds one of the students and a teacher abandon their group to save the child.]]> 2019-12-16 19:55:21 UTC https://padlet.com/schj/aznf0b9m80i6/wish/424726176 Jordan Mansfield https://padlet.com/schj/aznf0b9m80i6/wish/424726303 Dead

The birds attacking humans in the video and the birds dropping dead, not flying and flying into windows in the book. This relates to the story because it involves unusual action by birds. It also it science fiction because birds are scared of humans in real life and this doesn’t happen. These two things are both caused by something science related and both have affected humans. In both we still don’t know what is causing this behavior by birds. The scientific cause affects the birds and the humans. They also both involve students and teachers that are being affected. ]]> 2019-12-16 19:55:36 UTC https://padlet.com/schj/aznf0b9m80i6/wish/424726303 Alessandra Di Mise https://padlet.com/schj/aznf0b9m80i6/wish/424726321 Similar in Many Ways

The similarity between The Age of Miracles and "The Birds" is the apocalyptic events concurring and how the students act in this situation. In both of these examples something us affecting the birds and causing them to act in an abnormal way. Everyone is worried because of this and try to avoid it. The way the children acting relates to the story because in both the clip and the novel something is happening around them and those affected have no idea what is causing it. They listen to the higher authority and try to get through the obstacle without something happening to them, which it does in both examples.]]> 2019-12-16 19:55:37 UTC https://padlet.com/schj/aznf0b9m80i6/wish/424726321 Mica Navarro https://padlet.com/schj/aznf0b9m80i6/wish/424727944
Panic in Society

“The Birds” and “The Age of Miracles” share many similar details. In both these stories there is in a way an apocalypse. In the book we're reading in class the whole world faces a big problem which might mean to end f
or society and they know it. In “The Birds” huge flocks of crows are attacking people and not allowing them to live at ease like they usually would. In both these stories there is a worry of survival, both these stories have major conflicts that affect the world. For example, in one part of “The Age of Miracles” student are in a class when all of the sudden everything goes dark, students and teachers start running out in panic not knowing what is going on. A very similar scene in “The Birds” is when a teacher and her students run of their classroom in panic and fear of the birds. As they run out they get swarmed by savage birds. The birds in the story are like the darkness in the novel “The Age of Miracles” because they both bring panic to society. Another similarity the darkness and the birds share is that no one knows why it is happening or what caused it.

In the novel and in the video clip birds act irregular one being that they attack humans. In both plots birds are introduced to some problem which creates panic for the people. In the age of miracles people start to panic a lot for similar reasons as in the video clip. This relates because things are happening so fast that they panic and don't understand what is happening. In both the story and the video clip the people don't know what to do because birds are just waiting outside for you, what are you going to do now?

In both these stories there is in a way an apocalypse. In the book we're reading in class the whole world faces a big problem, the slowing of the earth. In the story “The Birds” the people face the problem of the birds attacking them, both are like apocalypse. Also,  in both the clip and the novel something is happening around them and those affected have no idea why its happening. In conclusion, ‘The Birds” and “The Age Of Miracles” are similar because in both people are changing because of what is happening around them.
