MG]]> 2024-01-19 22:02:16 UTC https://padlet.com/2025_pedroj/byi03vp7zjt782du/wish/2855162567 2025_pedroj https://padlet.com/2025_pedroj/byi03vp7zjt782du/wish/2855178856 There was a group of students from different cultures and places around the world.  Most of them got a long with each other but Andy annoyed them a lot with his mean comments.  His comments were very hurtful and rude.  They all talked to each on this trip a lot and get know one another better.  When they shared rooms with each other and didn’t get to pick roommates, they were all forced to get along.  The kids were all able to talk to Andy about his hurtful comments and he stopped being mean.  They had the trip of a lifetime.  


Prediction: My prediction is that the kids will visit the Empire State Building because in the book they mentioned that they have seen so many tourists visiting New York but they live there and have never gone up the Empire State Building. ]]> 2024-01-19 22:44:35 UTC https://padlet.com/2025_pedroj/byi03vp7zjt782du/wish/2855178856 2025_pedroj https://padlet.com/2025_pedroj/byi03vp7zjt782du/wish/2857335113  From  “School Trip”

“ You’re like the Joker, Andy! Maybe Batman wouldn’t always have to be Batman if the Joker wasn’t always the Joker” (204).

Craft compares  The Joker to Batman

By comparing these two unlike character, craft shows that Andy is being the bad guy ]]> 2024-01-22 16:32:55 UTC https://padlet.com/2025_pedroj/byi03vp7zjt782du/wish/2857335113 2025_pedroj https://padlet.com/2025_pedroj/byi03vp7zjt782du/wish/2857758103 “Sometimes, you have to learn to stop and smell the roses”(109).

 Craft is saying that sometimes you have to stop and take your time or to enjoy your time.

By saying this craft wants us to enjoy our time and use the good times well

This explains who he is because it shows he is trying to teach the students but in a funny manner instead of being a boring manner.

Craft shows that even if you have 1 item but you need to get 2 things done you can still do it.
Ex. If you have 1 hour to do 2 things it is still possible.

This explains that anything that seems impossible can be possible.

I felt when Ramon said to this Andy that it changed how Andy communicated with everyone.  Andy already joked with other people a lot and made fun of them for things like their cultural, how they looked or how they spoke.  He thought he was being funny but it hurt other peoples feelings.  He didn’t realize this bothered other people until Ramon told him this in the book.  The other students had the courage to also share how they felt because Ramon brought this up.  They were all finally able to be comfortable and vulnerable in sharing their true feelings.  ]]> 2024-01-26 22:24:22 UTC https://padlet.com/2025_pedroj/byi03vp7zjt782du/wish/2863460406 2025_pedroj https://padlet.com/2025_pedroj/byi03vp7zjt782du/wish/2871751203 Characterization: Jerry Craft uses characterization in School Trip to create complex and dynamic character. Maury is a kind kid that is very rich. (DQ): “But the school said the credit card should be working. Greg it looks like Maury is about to pay the check. What do you propose? Well since we can’t afford this on our own teachers salaries the only thing I propose is a toast, TO MAURY!”(153). This shows why Jerry Craft uses characterization with the character, Maury in using examples of generosity and strength of character.]]> 2024-02-02 22:09:54 UTC https://padlet.com/2025_pedroj/byi03vp7zjt782du/wish/2871751203 2025_pedroj https://padlet.com/2025_pedroj/byi03vp7zjt782du/wish/2879398759 I rate School Trip a 4/5, because this book makes me want to read more of it. This book has strong connections with me because, when I was on a school trip I was mad with who I had to stay with. I had a really strong connection to Andy. I used to be annoying to my class mates. A couple years ago but when moved here the kids here helped me get nicer and I got to be a better kid.]]> 2024-02-09 17:32:56 UTC https://padlet.com/2025_pedroj/byi03vp7zjt782du/wish/2879398759
