Plot, Character, Setting and Mood
· Explain how you figured out what your Avatar would look like.
There was a description in the book along with mentions of her appearance. For example, we find out that she is twelve years old on page 6.
· How did you choose the plot points?
I chose points that I thought would make it less confusing if you were to sum up the book. I was looking for a story that would make sense to someone who had not read the book.
· Explain how you figured out the setting in your story. What information led you to choose the pictures you picked for your plot points?
in the book it constantly mentions where they are so it was much easier to tell where they are at that point in the story. depending on what they were they were doing I would put a picture that reflected that.
· Explain what the word mood means and how/why you picked the song that you picked?
The word mood means how you feel at that time. I chose the song because you never know what is going to happen next, and there is the suspense of not knowing what will happen next.
Core Competency Reflection
When I need to boost my mood or re-focus, I take a break and I make sure to grab a snack and drink some water before I continue so that I make sure that I am fueled up and well hydrated. I will often feel down or low on energy if I am either hungry or thirsty and I will usually be too busy to notice that I am feeling either one.
This is how I select images and words to create impact for different audiences: I chose a combination of pictures from the book and pictures of my own creation to help the narrative along in my presentation. I am most proud of using a sunny-side up egg to show how happy I was about reading this book when we got to the conclusion and the cage I made myself in PowerPoint for the “Captured again” plot point. I created a clear and understandable narrative that I believe is entertaining enough to read and factual enough to complete the assignment and make sure that all of the book’s ideas are displayed.
Some skills I have developed to make my creative activities better are the ability to not just summarize the main points of a story but to make it all make sense with the other plot points without having to have the reader have to read the book. I was able to answer all the questions and hit all the major plot points and have it make sense.
