Service Learning=Plan

For may 28 service learning meeting we are presenting our research for our group. Our research is based on three things that we can get for the patient at CHOP. I find out that most of the patients at CHOP wants books, and toys. we would also discus how much money we raise so far, and how much money we need.

For next year service learning I think each student should be allowed to conduct an individual research on their project.

Theme= (Grade this one) American dream

Have you ever thought about your American Dream yet? Well if you haven’t thought about it yet, this is a good time for you to get a better understanding of a perfect American dream. What exactly is the American dream? The American dream is fame, family, and owning a nice dwelling.

George and Lennie often think their American dream is to own their own farm where they would live as a family. They would work together to grow their crops, and raise their little animal together; also they would look out for each other.

Curley’s wife also had her own American dream. Her American dream was that one day a man from Hollywood would marry her and take her to Hollywood with him. There she would become a showgirl or a movie star.
But unfortunately, her American dream was crushed, after she married curly.

Having a nice place to live in is also what most Americans dream of. Lennie and George often think about getting a house together. They dream about a place where they would have a fireplace and windmill. They would also like a place where they wouldn’t have to wake up to work when the weather is rough.

I, too, think of my American dream as one day having a family and a place to live, being famous, “an live of the fatta the LAN.” I plan to go to college and graduate school and work in the business world. While these are the things I dream about, and everyone has his or her own dreams. What are yours?

Symbols= "Of Mice and Men"

There are many symbols in “Of Mice and Men”. The symbol that I chose is Lennie’s puppy. I think Lennie’s puppy represents new beginning’s, hope, and dreams.

Lennie’s puppy symbolizes a new start for both Lennie and George. When Lennie received the puppy from Slim, he and George had big plans for raising the puppy together. The puppy would also keep him from getting in trouble. Lennie had a problem of petting a girl’s hair. If he pet the he would have this problem.

Lennie’s puppy symbolizes hope as well. After all, hope is what keeps Lennie and George together. Unlike most of the migrants workers, George and Lennie hope that one day after working in three different towns, they would raise enough money to buy a land where they would lived as a family, own their own little garden with a couple of animals, and a nice small electric stove for the winter. Having the puppy gives them hope that they would achieve this dream.

Lennie’s puppy also symbolizes dreams, especially the dream to live longer and experience the sorrow and the meaning of the world. When the puppy dies, Lennie’s dream dies as well.

Indeed I think Lennie puppy represent hope, new adventure, and dream. I also think he represent joy and life after death. This is just one of the symbol that really grab my attention after reading “Of Mice and Men” I hope this essay inspired to keep writing about one of your favorite character or a symbol in any book that read.

Last weekend I volunteer at the Philadelphia Book Festival at Central library. I really had a lot of fun.

Service Learning=Reflection

my service learning group was outstanding yesterday during our meeting. I really liked that we were all participating and putting our best effort to do research and putting things together that were need for our project, for example making poster board and pamphelt. And i also liked that Miss Madhi had each individuals doing different thing at once, instead everyone doing one thing at the same time.
