Letter to (Patrick) From -Kat

Dear Patrick you have a strong introduction paragrah and a strong voice. You give clear examples, and exsplain your points clearly. However i would encourage you to use more metaphors and also make sure not to seperate your paragraphs when you give examples. I feel you should use more transition words. Good job on expanding your ideas and relating them to your own exsperience as well as others. You keep the writer intrested and wanting to know more. I feel you should share more emotion with your examples though other than that you did a fantastic job.

Dear Scotty

I enjoyed your second paragraph. It was filled with facts the background of Sudan. I had assumed your paper would relate to moments that you liked our that stuck with you. It not only made me aware but it was funny also! I liked how you spoke about the Dinka refusing to change relieigon. Although I think if Islamic people read it they would find it offensive :P

Letter to Zane


I really liked the message you displayed in your paper. The way you gave descriptions of the book and did not completely give the book away was also very good. I agree with you on the fact that everyone needs to go read this book because it gives you a different point of view on the world.  I agree with the message that you were trying to get across. I also feel like after reading this book there is nothing in the world that I can’t do. The conclusion truly captured the bulk of your whole paper and re-touched on everything you had previously explained. I thought your paper was inspirational and your conclusion was extremely well written. Good job bro

Andrew...

The things I view differently now because of reading my peers comments and questions and views of the book include how i look at my main charachter and how I look at the flow of the story. I anaylize the main charachter differently now because of reading the comments and questions made on here. there are more things i look at as far as how they handle their conflicts in the story, and even comparing the charachter to myself which opens my mind even more and hooks me into the story more because i am predicting their actions in the narrative because i am looking deeper into their personality because of what i have read in blogging.

Compatibility (Aaron's Question)

In the books that we have been reading its easy to notice the personalities of the characters. Based on the personality of your character, do you think you could work with the characters from your book in real life? If you could work with them, in what ways do you see yourself being compatible? If you can't be compatible explain why.
