TESLA Writing Paper

 How much would it cost and what would you do if you sent four people on a two week surf trip? Where would you go? What would you do? How much would it cost?

 Where would you go? I would go to Costa Rica. Because of the consistent waves year round and also to the many great surf spots. All year round the water is warm and breaks constantly. Where would your surf destination be?

   What would you do? You can not only surf but visit the wildlife and get wonderful canopy tours! Costa Rica is known for great surfing destinations such as Tamarindo, Playa Avellanes and Playa Negra. Not only is there surfing for people, they have surf competitions in may for dogs. How would you spend your day in Costa Rica?

  How much it would cost? For four people to go to Costa Rica it would cost around $6,000 dollars. $6,000 would cost a lot but the trip would be a learning experience and would be worth it. Someday people may not be able to travel much so it is good to do it now even if it costs a lot. How much would you spend to go to Costa Rica?

   How much would it cost and what would you do if you sent four people on a two week surf trip? How much would it cost, What would you do and where would you go if you could go on a two week surf trip? Going to Costa Rica might cost a lot but it would be worth it! I think it would be an amazing experience to go to Costa Rica and surf. Traveling to different places is a good thing for kids to do when they are young so they can then learn about culture and how other people live.

Reading Resposne: Alice in Wonderland Script

Today I read the Alice in Wonderland Script. My part in the play is the White Queen, If you ask me she is kinda crazy or not right in the head. But the rest of the parts are very interesting and it seems like all the characters are kinda crazy, except Alice. Alice seems to be lost in most of the book and often asks a lot of people for directions. When Alice encounters the White Queen the queen seems to be saying "bread and butter" often which is a little strange.

The sow's head and the conch shell each wield a certain kind of power over the boys. In what

What, if anything, might the dead parachutist symbolize? Does he symbolize something other
than what the beast and the Lord of the Flies symbolize?

Lord of the Flies Final Assignment

The sow's head and the conch shell each wield a certain kind of power over some of the boys. In what
ways do these objects' powers differ? The sows head has a weird control over the boys. Some of them act as if it is a gift to the "beast". Some act as if it is there leader and follow it and talk to it. The conch has another certain power over the boys, that when the blow it it seems to bring all the boys to it.The conch stays with the boys till the very end of the book.

When we start the book our two main characters find the conch on a stump as it was waiting there for them. Ralph and Piggy notice it and then decide it may be good to blow it. When they blow it, it brings in many other boys that are all very confused on why they are there. So it may seem the the boys do not know what it is that brings them in but the go to it anyway. The conch stays with Ralph and Piggy till the end and even then it still holds its power. Even when the conch is smashed when a rock is throw at it, it is a shock to most boys that someone would do that.

The pig head holds a power on only some of the boys, Simon, Jack and a few of Jacks hunters. Simon has a connection with the pig, that when he sees the pig, the pig talks to him and tells him to leave the other boys. Simon some what does leave them, and ends up getting killed because the other boys. The boys attack him and kill him because they believe the beast has taken over his body. The pig head is a sacrifice to Jack and his hunters, so it doesn't have much meaning to Jack and his hunters.

In the end there is a fight and the boys kill piggy, and piggy brings the conch with them. The pig head eventually rots away and the boys get rescued. When the boys get rescued they leave behind the savages, the conch and the pig head that they had for a month or so. Living alone in the wild on an island is let alone frighting. But to have a pig head on a stick and a conch hold some sort of power over you is weirder.
