Reading Notes Part B: Apache, Coyote Steals a Mans Wife

This story is short and doesnt have a lot of detail but there is a lot of room for imagination and to add detail in.

The main character is the man, I could give the man a name and make him more personal
Explain why the man was on the rock and how he got there
Make the journey back to his wife more interesting
I like the way the man kills the coyote but there is not good imagery involved, I could make this more interesting and not so abrupt.
Why was the rock which the man was on raised the sky? I could have the rock crumble and somehow the man survived and nursed himself back to life to go on this journey to find his wife that was stolen by the coyote.

Growth Mindset: My job as a growth mindset place

I have a part time job at a store in Del City called Gregorys sporting goods. I sell team uniforms and various things to customers and have been doing so for about two and half years while I have been in college. I work part time along with school. There is a lot of talking to do and selling and I have used those skills to be successful at what I do. I have been searching for a career and finally found one upon graduation and going through interviews you have to sell yourself. I believe my job at gregorys has provided with mindset that I will succeed in my career. I loved to learn and grow and this part time job has lead me to learn patience and organization. I am going to be sad leaving but I am so excited to start my new career. Gregorys Logo

Reading Notes: The Gold Giving Serpent

The story I have chosen for this week is The Gold Giving Serpent by Joseph Jacobs The poor farmer and the serpent are the main characters of the story I especially liked the serpent, he was clever and also was not to be messed with He taught the farmer a lesson about greed The farmer tried to betray the hand that fed him I could change the story to were the serpent was immortal and played dead and began to seek revenge on the farmer I could change it to a huge battle of the boy and the serpent for all the gold The snake lets the man be free after killing his son, I could re write that and have the snake take revenge on the farmer and kill him as well.

Week 5 Story: The Tale of Johnny Gloke

Check out the stroy on my portfolio Here! Johnny Gloke was a farmer by trade, but, like a man of spirit, he grew tired of his trade and wished to follow a path that would lead to honor and fame. So for a time he was much fonder of sitting around thinking of what he could do rather than tending the crop. One day Johnny Gloke was walking around his farm trying to find something to do. He was in the barn and came across a leather football. He walked outside and saw a beehive hanging from a tree about 40 yards away. He wound up and three the football and stuck the beehive right in the middle and knocked it down. He was overjoyed at his success and his heart rose to the doing of the great deed. He now knew what his path would be to fortune and honor. So he set out to find the best college football program to go play for. He grabbed his football and headed for college.
