I think some challenges are writers block and just starting the essay and knowing nothing is even started. I don't have any strategies I would just say to wait until you are ready to write.]]> 2021-06-08 11:42:07 UTC https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/h2ab3lg9zad82pdh/wish/1592596889 https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/h2ab3lg9zad82pdh/wish/1592606291 I wrote about how hard work can have a lot of impact and how if you push yourself mentally and physically you can do a lot better than you thought you could. I think that the themes occur when Louie is bullied and isn't good at track but works so hard and becomes a track star and stops getting bullied, he also really improves his health in general.]]> 2021-06-08 11:48:15 UTC https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/h2ab3lg9zad82pdh/wish/1592606291 https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/h2ab3lg9zad82pdh/wish/1592621252 How do you think louie has evolved and changed as a person throughout the story, would you say the change is good or bad?]]> 2021-06-08 11:57:06 UTC https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/h2ab3lg9zad82pdh/wish/1592621252 https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/h2ab3lg9zad82pdh/wish/1592623813 I think I am comfortable on writing an introduction but sometimes I need some help to fix it so that theres no mistakes. The part that is challenging is the real life connection because I also have to make it catch the reader's attention. Usually I will just think of many different real life connections and just choose what I think is the best one.]]> 2021-06-08 11:58:37 UTC https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/h2ab3lg9zad82pdh/wish/1592623813 https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/h2ab3lg9zad82pdh/wish/1592624315 How do you think war has changed Louie's outlook and mentality on life, and what lessons do you think it has taught him in his lifetime?]]> 2021-06-08 11:58:56 UTC https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/h2ab3lg9zad82pdh/wish/1592624315 https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/h2ab3lg9zad82pdh/wish/1592625591 Writing an introduction can be hard at first. For me, Its hard to figure out what to talk about and make it sound good. Once I start writing I just let me hands do all the work while I think away. A strategy that could be helpful could be talk to others to see what they would be writing and examples and then your brain will understand the assignment and figure what to write,]]> 2021-06-08 11:59:45 UTC https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/h2ab3lg9zad82pdh/wish/1592625591 https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/h2ab3lg9zad82pdh/wish/1592627082 How do you think the last section of the book will go, do you have any idea what the closing theme or idea will be, any estimations?]]> 2021-06-08 12:00:32 UTC https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/h2ab3lg9zad82pdh/wish/1592627082 https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/h2ab3lg9zad82pdh/wish/1592627481 I wrote about survival and I see this theme emerge most when Louie and his crew are on the boat, struggling against hunger, thirst and sharks, hoping to survive to the next day. I wrote about this because it changes him as a person and also his views on society.]]> 2021-06-08 12:00:46 UTC https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/h2ab3lg9zad82pdh/wish/1592627481 https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/h2ab3lg9zad82pdh/wish/1592631904 War has definitely impacted Louie's life, because everything you go through in war is so traumatizing and your afraid to die. War has taught him that even though it might be scary at times, you should never give up and keep pushing.]]> 2021-06-08 12:03:20 UTC https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/h2ab3lg9zad82pdh/wish/1592631904 https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/h2ab3lg9zad82pdh/wish/1592631913 I think Louie has evolved a lot throughout the story and in a good way.. In the beginning, he was more violent and pushed everyone away while when he is stranded on the boat he cares for his crew and fights of sharks to keep them alive.]]> 2021-06-08 12:03:20 UTC https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/h2ab3lg9zad82pdh/wish/1592631913 https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/h2ab3lg9zad82pdh/wish/1592634412 I think the last section of the book will explore how Louie is brought back to his home and how war has changed him and will probably affect how he thinks about society.]]> 2021-06-08 12:04:39 UTC https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/h2ab3lg9zad82pdh/wish/1592634412 https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/h2ab3lg9zad82pdh/wish/1592636232 For my introduction, I wrote about how you can't give up in life even though it can be hard and scary at times you have to keep pushing. Louie is great example because throughout the book he talks about his experience at war and shows how scary it can be. Your life is on the line but if you give up then you'll die, so you have to keep pushing in order to survive. ]]> 2021-06-08 12:05:32 UTC https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/h2ab3lg9zad82pdh/wish/1592636232 https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/h2ab3lg9zad82pdh/wish/1592636734 Writing an introduction can be difficult for me. It is the first thing a reader will read, and you have to make sure to grab their attention. it can also be difficult when you are not sure what you will you write about and you have to include it/mention it in the into. ]]> 2021-06-08 12:05:45 UTC https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/h2ab3lg9zad82pdh/wish/1592636734 https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/h2ab3lg9zad82pdh/wish/1592639444 How do you think Louie feels when he is called on stage to speak to people about his war experiences? ]]> 2021-06-08 12:07:09 UTC https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/h2ab3lg9zad82pdh/wish/1592639444 https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/h2ab3lg9zad82pdh/wish/1592643311 He probably felt nervous and didn't want to because its hard to talk about that.

That all those challenges along the way will be worth it in the end. ]]> 2021-06-08 12:15:22 UTC https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/h2ab3lg9zad82pdh/wish/1592656115 https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/h2ab3lg9zad82pdh/wish/1592660233 Louie is a strong person and war really left him traumatized and messed him up.
