Community and Friendship

In charger trails I learned many things.  I learned how to work as a team and listen to other ideas.  We worked together to change some ideas to make them better.  I was a leader in the maze activity but in the others followers.  The marble activity is really hard but we worked through it.  I need to work on communicating through.  It the hog call everyone was sort of just working together without a leader.  In the marble challenge Runyon was the leader and he talked a lot about what we were supposed to do.  No one felt left out from their ideas.  Everyone’s ideas were listened to and some were used.

Favorite character in Seedfolks

My favorite character in Seedfolks so far is Ana. I like Ana because she takes a helpful watch through the community. She is also stubborn but nice. At the beginning of her chapter she was judging people by their cover but at the end she understood. She also took care of the seeds that she dug up in the lot. Last but not least she gets help from everyone she can because it is hard or impossible to do herself. I can relate to my character because like her I also care for what I do wrong so if I broke something I will try to fix or replace it.

Visiting Gotham City

 

batman-gotham-city

I would like to visit Gotham city because it has a superhero, Batman and he is one of my favorite. He is my favorite because of the Lego Batman games. He was the one that I almost always called to use. His best attack was his exploding Frisbee like thing. It was batman 3 though, so he was with the Joker and the other villains and superheroes. Batman was called only after Flash and Superman. I really want to meet him and get his autograph.
