Week 2 Reading Anthology

Character Charting Strategy:

Greatest Strength:

  • The Man in the Moon
    • The main character is bold.
    • He is willing to ask for what he wants even if it takes multiple tries. 
  • Pygmalion
    • He was very artistic and creative in that he sculpted a figure so real that he began to believe the piece of art was actually real. 
  • The Tiger
    • He shows grace and allows the Brahman to go try to get advice and not be eaten by the tiger. 
  • The Brahman
    • He is determined to try to find someone to help him so that he does not get eaten by the tiger. 
  • The Jackal
    • He is smart and very sneaky so that he can help the Brahman escape the tiger.
  • Androcles and the Lion
    • This was my favorite story I read...Androcles was caring and brave in that he helped a lion that could have hurt him. 
    • The Lion was kind and grateful in that he spared Androcles' life because Androcles helped the lion early on in the story. 

Greatest Weakness:

  • The Man in the Moon
    • Main character is greedy and unhappy, nothing is ever good enough
    • He does not know how to be content with what he is given
  • Pygmalion
    • He is very lonely and is not willing to accept reality because of the extent of his loneliness. 
  • The Tiger
    • He is very manipulative and does not follow through with his word as he tells the Brahman that he will not eat him and then tries to eat him once he is let free. 
  • The Brahman
    • He is somewhat foolish in that he believes the Tiger and lets the Tiger go free without realizing that the Tiger might be trying to fool him. 
  • The Jackal
    • I really liked this character and honestly had a hard time finding weaknesses...I guess a potential weakness could be that he lied throughout the story in order to seem dumber than he actually is, but he used this to his advantage to help the Brahman so I don't actually think it is a weakness.

Introduction to Pip

Hi friends! Welcome to my blog :) My name is Piper, but most of my friends call me a slew of nicknames like Pipe, Pipey, Pipes, Pipeydoodle, Pip (hence Pip Pip Hurray)... you get the point! I am a student at the University of Oklahoma, and I am currently finishing up my last semester before I graduate (don't remind me, I'm getting emotional about it). I am from Tulsa, OK originally, and I would love to go back someday, but my future is pretty up in the air right now so I am not sure when that might be. I am studying Health and Exercise Science with an emphasis on Pre-Occupational Therapy, and the goal would be to start OT school in Summer 2020. I'm super passionate about people and forming relationships, which is what drew me to OT. I love the idea of working in a profession that allows me to make new friends, love others, and solve problems all at the same time. As well as my many nicknames, my friends call me an old lady at heart. I love to read (most recent book- Where...

Week 9 Story: Justice is Served

 Justice is Served The husband and wife were so in love. They were ever thankful to the doctor for introducing them to each other. If it weren't for him, they would have never found each other. But that's beside the point. What they were really interested in was the money. They loved each other but they were both greedy. They thought they could never be ultimately happy unless they were rich. They both had worked for the doctor at one point or another, and so they knew that he had more money than he knew what to do with! The husband and wife were talking one night about their lack of income and how neither of them held jobs. They decided that their best bet would be to deceive the doctor and take his money! The next day, the husband went to the doctor and asked if he could borrow some money to help his wife, who was sick. The doctor willingly gave the husband money, because he trusted him and wanted the wife to get better. A week later, the husband returned, claiming his wif...
