In term 1 we have learned about stages of plot, wrote about wrote a paper about the book Catching Fire, and we watched the movie The Hunger Games. We have also been learning about story elements. An example of a story element is conflict. A conflict is a struggle between two forces.
In a story you can have internal and external conflicts. An internal conflict is a problem between a character and themself whereas an external conflict is a problem between a character and another outside force. Looking back over what we've read so far, one conflict I remember was in the book Catching Fire. It was between President Snow and Katniss, because Katniss and Peeta were going to eat the Nightlock berries and they both one the Games. Also Katniss faked being in love with Peeta. This is an example of an external conflict. I think it will be resolved by Katniss marrying Peeta, so it will look like her love for him is real.
In Language Arts class, my greatest academic achievement this term is getting a 100% on my vocabulary test. I am proud of myself because some of those words were hard to remember. The part I struggled with the most was the word "foreshadowing" because it had a hard definition to remember. The plan to improve my learning in this area is to study more.
If you were to ask Miss Lewis what kind of student I am, she would probably say I am a student who does her work, but isn't always on task. I agree with her because I always get my work done, but I'm not always on task.
