The challenging part is getting started and trying to right it out. A strategy I do is look at examples of intros to essays to at least get a idea. ]]> 2021-06-08 11:59:34 UTC https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/syxw18g4l21640wb/wish/1592625240 https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/syxw18g4l21640wb/wish/1592628132 Process is like planning then putting the ideas together to make the writing then revising it at the end. The planning part is hardest for me bc I tend to make plans but then end up rewriting everything bc I didn’t like the way it sounded so it’s really time consuming and challenging ]]> 2021-06-08 12:01:08 UTC https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/syxw18g4l21640wb/wish/1592628132 kimora_sanders https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/syxw18g4l21640wb/wish/1592630023 2021-06-08 12:02:14 UTC https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/syxw18g4l21640wb/wish/1592630023 https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/syxw18g4l21640wb/wish/1592637250 Understanding. This theme is kinda hidden if u ask me but throughout the book no ones understands why it happen, how it happened, no one understands each other’s emotions various times in the book.. etc ]]> 2021-06-08 12:06:02 UTC https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/syxw18g4l21640wb/wish/1592637250 https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/syxw18g4l21640wb/wish/1592641628 Who do you guys think grieved the best throughout the situation in the family?]]> 2021-06-08 12:08:19 UTC https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/syxw18g4l21640wb/wish/1592641628 mialopez12 https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/syxw18g4l21640wb/wish/1592643400 My process is more of letting my thoughts just flow out and writing down whatever comes to mind and then fixing later. I am comfortable with this skill because it's the fun part of the essay. ]]> 2021-06-08 12:09:11 UTC https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/syxw18g4l21640wb/wish/1592643400 angeni_shahi https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/syxw18g4l21640wb/wish/1592648581 Do you feel bad for Mr. Salmon? People keep calling him a crackpot and Mrs. Salmon seems kind of aloof now that she's realized how little she likes her life. What would you be feeling in his situation as an injured and grieving father?]]> 2021-06-08 12:11:43 UTC https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/syxw18g4l21640wb/wish/1592648581 kimora_sanders https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/syxw18g4l21640wb/wish/1592652330 I feel like her dad grieved the hardest because when she passed and he started breaking the ships they built , that was his way of grieving. ]]> 2021-06-08 12:13:36 UTC https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/syxw18g4l21640wb/wish/1592652330 mialopez12 https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/syxw18g4l21640wb/wish/1592652792 2021-06-08 12:13:51 UTC https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/syxw18g4l21640wb/wish/1592652792 angeni_shahi https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/syxw18g4l21640wb/wish/1592653033 I think although the repression of any feelings is unhealthy, she faces her grief only when she finally feels comfortable which is a good choice on her part. By choosing when and how to let that sadness go I think she feels more control over those emotions and if I was in her shoes I'd probably do the same.]]> 2021-06-08 12:13:58 UTC https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/syxw18g4l21640wb/wish/1592653033 angeni_shahi https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/syxw18g4l21640wb/wish/1592657955 I think losing a kid set something off in her. She no longer wants to be a parent really. Not from a place of hatred but just an overwhelming sense of grief and regret. She only does things out of obligation for her kids and I think it's mainly because of a misguided expression of grief.]]> 2021-06-08 12:16:18 UTC https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/syxw18g4l21640wb/wish/1592657955 kimora_sanders https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/syxw18g4l21640wb/wish/1592658787 I do feel bad for him because imagine losing your daughter you are already in pain. So on top of that you have people calling you names plus you have to be there for the rest of your family and you don't eve have yourself together all the way.]]> 2021-06-08 12:16:42 UTC https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/syxw18g4l21640wb/wish/1592658787 mialopez12 https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/syxw18g4l21640wb/wish/1592659801 Throughout the novel we see many instances where trust has been given, where it has lacked, and where it's been misplaced.]]> 2021-06-08 12:17:15 UTC https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/syxw18g4l21640wb/wish/1592659801 angeni_shahi https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/syxw18g4l21640wb/wish/1592661745 Sure it is about grief but we also watch these characters grow into their post - Susie selves. I'm guessing we'll eventually see how her friends fare as adults and how everyone moves past their grief in a healthy way. So in that sense, growth is a big theme too.]]> 2021-06-08 12:18:17 UTC https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/syxw18g4l21640wb/wish/1592661745 kimora_sanders https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/syxw18g4l21640wb/wish/1592664469 Like Angeni said, losing Susie really triggered something in her. I can't relate to losing a child or anything but I know It is probably killing her.

She has been a very strong portrayed character. It is also good to see that although in this tragic time for the family, she is able to get away from her sadness and think clearly.]]> 2021-06-08 12:19:57 UTC https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/syxw18g4l21640wb/wish/1592664994 angeni_shahi https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/syxw18g4l21640wb/wish/1592665772 I'm notoriously bad at writing drafts because I have a fear of messing up so my comfortability with it is on the low side. I'm alright with eventually editing and making a good one but its that first paragraph that gets me tripped up. So my strategy is to stop being picky at first. If I write a bad paragraph then its whatever, I can go back and fix it. Or I can write a new one but regardless its progress.]]> 2021-06-08 12:20:16 UTC https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/syxw18g4l21640wb/wish/1592665772 angeni_shahi https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/syxw18g4l21640wb/wish/1592671800 I've read through the book already and made a connection with starting decisions and/or responses that lead to outcomes of further personal growth at the end, and I think alot of the grief the characters experience shape who they eventually become and what they eventually decide to do with their lives]]> 2021-06-08 12:23:17 UTC https://padlet.com/mconfroy1/syxw18g4l21640wb/wish/1592671800
