I think that I was successful as a team member in the Hog Call when I quickly found my partner in it. In the Maze Challenge I think I worked because I helped find a few squares that we had to go to in order to beat the maze. In the Marble Challenge I was successful because I helped think of ideas that weren’t very good but were still ideas. I was successful as a friend in Hog Call because I was agreeing with people when they were telling me to partner up with someone. In the Maze Challenge I was successful as a friend when I was encouraging people to pick the right square. With the Marble Challenge, I worked good as a friend because I agreed to other people’s ideas.

My Favorite Seedfolks Character
My favorite character in the book Seedfolks is Virgil because he doesn’t feel that if he didn’t have the garden, he would be very sad. He also cares a lot about kid stuff like school, friends, bikes, and other kid stuff. Something that makes me like him the most though, is that even though the locket was in the trash and was very dirty, he still kept it because he thought it was special. We can relate because we are both boys and because we also both care about friends, bikes, and kid stuff.
Ireland
The first reason I would like to go to Ireland is because while I would love visiting the beaches, I would also want to see the green plains and mountains of Ireland. Another reason is that I would like to see their cultures and what people do there. My last reason is because Ireland is and island and it has water all around it there still is beaches that you can swim in.
