LOOK AT MY BRAIN

My masterpiece does not reflect my inner thinking because I do not have a masterpiece. I am in the processing of making one. I have a few ideas to include to it or make one into the masterpiece. I don't know. But I will leave with this note the majority of my work does not reflect my inner thinking. Tis just a scratch of the surface. Though there are some posts that reflect my inner thinking but only a few. As for the creativity I don't know how to express it through a computer screen. The collaboration is difficult for I would rather do something myself unless that person is more informed about what they know than I can know with research.

SEEKING MENTOR

I honestly have no mentor in mind but if I did I would ask him a bunch of questions. The questions will mostly be involving what the mentor does. I have a few mentors in mind and I will have to choose which one to contact. I was thinking about being my own mentor but I don't think that will fly too well with my teacher so I am looking for one. My mentor will be of the math or science related.

S' WONDERFUL

Today in class we talked about how can we present our final form of the project and what it will look like. The class talked about making videos of doing our masterpiece, having a visual presentation like with pictures, having the mentor join us in a Skype call. There were other things that the class mentioned but I don't remember them.

Literature Analysis #3

                                               NONFICTION ANALYSIS

TOPIC(S) and/or EVENT(S)

1. The life Leonardo Da Vinci was a mysterious one. Little is known about his life except for his inventions and drawings.

2. I think the author choose to write about Leonardo Da Vinci because he was an amazing inventor and artist. He was ahead of his time when it came to the inventions so the author may be curious to know how his life was.

3. I choose this book because I admire Leonardo for being a great inventor in the Renaissance era. I like the Renaissance part of history and he is one of the people I wanted to know about other than Michelangelo, Donatello, and the other famous artists of that era.

4. I did find the book to be realistic because it was a biography about Leonardo's life and what he did that made him such a famous inventor and artist of that period in history. He's work is amazing and I wished that I could paint as well as he could.

PEOPLE

1. The author did not make the character up because it was a biography. He told the story of Leonardo's life and included all the people that he met (that were documented of course). The authors speak highly of Leonardo. If I met him in person I would be curious to know how he thought of such ideas in that time frame.

Literature Analysis #2

                                                    FICTION ANALYSIS

 1. Harry Potter is an average bespectacled 11 year old boy who has lived with the Dursley family ever since his parents died in a car crash. For some reason the family has always mistreated him. On his 11th birthday a giant man named Rubeus Hagrid hands him a letter telling him that he has been accepted as a student at the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Harry learns that his parents were wizards and were killed by an evil wizard Voldemort, a truth that was hidden from him all these years. He embarks for his new life as a student, gathering two good friends Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger along the way. They soon learn that something very valuable is hidden somewhere inside the school and Voldemort is very anxious to lay his hands on it.

2. The theme of this book is the finding of oneself. Harry undergoes various challenges that out him to the test and he finds it within himself to overcome them. He also finds things out the he has never found out before which make him change what he is or what he was.

3. The tone is straightforward and simple, with few purely decorative elements or artistic features, few metaphors and figures, and little playful irony. The language is easy to grasp.

4.  1) Simile: "There was a face, the most terrible face Harry had ever seen. It was chalked white with glaring red eyes and slits for nostrils, like a snake." Pg. 293 This simile helps describe what Voldemort's face looks like in back of Quarrel's head.
