Reading Notes: Week 2 Anthology

 

https://sites.google.com/view/jatakas/rabbit

The reading that I most enjoyed was called "The Foolish, Timid Rabbit" by Ellen C. Babbitt. I really love animals and this reading was very interesting to me for many reasons. This reading made me excited about possibly doing my own about the Rabbit and all of the other animals but maybe changing it where 2 animals who are running from this "broken earth" fall in love or something. Here's a little break down in bullet points of what happened in this reading:

1. Rabbit thinks to himself, oh what if the earth is breaking, something falls and the Rabbit thinks it is so takes off running.

2. Lots and lots of Rabbits follow him on this journey of running from the breaking earth because he told all the other Rabbits that he/she witnessed it first hand.

3. As they were running, the Rabbits pass by a Deer, a Fox, and an Elephant. All of these animals join on the journey of running as far as they can to get away.

4. Lion sees all of them running and is curious so blocks them off from running anymore. Figures out who first came up with this rumor and the first Rabbit goes with the Lion to see where this was happening and the reasoning behind it.

5. The Lion to the Rabbit "It must have been the sound of the coconut falling to the ground that you heard, You foolish Rabbit!"

The Lion in this story is consider the King of Beasts and if it wasn't for him, who knows where these animals would've ran off to. They could've kept running forever and ever but thankful to an animal who cares and is curious, the animals become safe and unstressed out. 


The "Beast" and the Rabbit who thought the earth was breaking running to the first initial reason why.

THE BEAST

The Turtle Who Indeed Stopped Talking Story Week 12

  Bibliography: Ellen C Babbitt,  The Turtle who Couldn't Stop Talking One day, I was just strollin around the wildnerness where I live by the pond. There were these two birds who flew around me for quite a while, pretty sure they were geese. I got very nervous and scared so I hid myself in the pond. The geese flew away and never bothered me the rest of the time.  The next day, the two geese came back and I was outside the pond at the time. They came down to me and said, "Turtle, we are looking for some food for the night, can you be our dinner?" I, still scared and nervous at day two, decided to talk calmly to the geese.  "Why would you want to eat me, I've done nothing to the two of you besides be friendly, I just met you guys." I exclaimed. The geese decided to be friends and stop terrorizing me.  A couple days the geese came to visit me at the pond, we talked and hung out a lot. One day the geese tell me they will take me to a far away very nice home if

Logan's Introduction

 Hello fellow classmates, My name is Logan Biggs and I was born in Dallas, Texas on February 3rd, 1998. I have lived in Frisco, Texas since I was in 8th grade, but has always lived in the great state of Texas. I grew up playing soccer since I was 10 and I actually attended Midwestern State University my freshman year on a soccer scholarship. I got hurt, but, short story, ended up here at The University of Oklahoma and my time here has been great. This is my 3rd year here and I am majoring in Finance. Money and math has always been a passion of mine since I can remember. Something cool about my major is that, sometimes, depending what you do, you get to be a strategist for other companies and take care of the financial decisions they choose to make. The best class I took last semester was Business Finance. In my opinion, this was my favorite class because this is what I am majoring in and I really enjoy doing financial problems. My favorite type of movies are comedy and action movies. M
