5 Part Paragraphs

When our class was doign 5 part paragraphs I saw the most frequent mistake was imbedding quotes. This I had trouble on too. I didn't know how to put the page number in with my sentence and from what I saw that was what other had trouble on too, but from watching myself and others get marked down for that and why I think now I have a handle on what I was doing wrong.

I also saw that commentary was also something the class had trouble with. This I too had trouble on. We didn't have enough commentary to support out point or we had it going off topic from what we were trying to prove. I can definitly see why it is important to stay on topic but stayign on it was something I keep on having trouble with.

Something Intersting

In our group we discussed the poem "Lobsters". We discussed a lot but what really caught my eye about the it was when they said how they described the colors of the lobster to death. I'm very into poetry but this peom didn't seem very appealing to me so I didn't see much into it; i read what it said but never really looked into it, they meaning it was trying to put out.

Another discussion point that was brought up to me was when they someone brought up how the lobster looked from the outside, they said something about being exoctic. For me I would never put two and two together. I think i did'nt quite get that becasue it didn't seem interesting so it might have been the way I was readidng it. Now I know that i shouldn't judge every poem from the first line becasue I found out new things from this poem discussion.

Animal Farm

Man, only creature here to stand without feature of production or introduction to the world. Eggs, milk, or strength for plough though indeed man, know how yet depend to set animals in charge, such as chicken and the cow. Revealing man as lord of animals without giving in while supplying the bare minimun. Denying each to reach natural span so understand their lives remain miserable. What is to gain is only let visable by the market, though largest is left to being dug therefor dig. Tis it is I for I no lie am their pig so grumble I do not as I stumble on the spot at which point ending is brought to my strife by the one and only man held lonely knife.
