Bloom’s Taxonomy: Lord of the Flies



I was a self directed learner by reading the book carefully and clearly which indicates that I did not escape long paragraphs and read the paragraph or chapter again that I didn’t understand. I mostly accepted responsibility and had good learning strategies for understanding the book. This means that I took notes without the teacher asking me sometimes, and after reading the book I went to sparknotes.com to fully understand a brief summary of the chapters we were assigned to read to get an advantageous review of it. Although I am a self-directed learner, that doesn’t mean I am always like that because two times I fell behind reading because I didn’t fully finish reading. I’m a slow reader and it takes time for me to understand some paragraphs. So I could have done better of this obstacle by reading some after school, in the bus going back home, and at night. When reading the book I compared it to the first day, where the class was struck with confusion and awkwardness as we were ordered to go barefoot and Mr. R in a inaudible voice said that we had to pretend we were isolated on an island, and then I read aloud the paper on the board as everyone listened to me, and on it we were asked on a brown timeworn paper with burned edges to elect a leader. So after a scrappy and baffling election, I had been nominated to be the leader of a massive class. You could say a kindergarten class with somewhat  mostly immature 8th graders that did NOT pay attention to me at all. So I experienced  that I was like Ralph, and Aron, my assistant was like either Piggy or Simon sometimes, and also I thought Fred was like Jack without a doubt and because he was the cause of intrusion by influencing other people to be like him by  messing around, not paying attention, and distracting other students from listening to me. I give my self a 8 out of 10 for the quality of me reading the book and conducting the assignment where I was the leader.

I was a critical thinker while doing the Meyer Briggs assignment because I gathered , analyzed, and processed information from other sites and variety of sources. This means first I took information from my test results from different sites and summarized them all in one. This was done by having four different Internet Explorers open on ESFP, and I used this method of taking information and typing my words on Microsoft Word. After that I also got a illustration by getting the chart that explained me. I was a critical thinker throughout the assignment because I divided my assignment by separating the other information to get to explain it all in one by having the most important facts. I rewrote what I saw from the sites by combining them in my summary and prepared the names of famous people that were ESFP like me. I think my finest and most trouble less for me in the Lord of the Flies section came in this one, and I would give myself a 9.5 for being a critical thinker.

I was a self directed learner while doing the project because I took creative risks in developing untried ideas. This means I put pictures stickers on my shirt, and even though my handwriting’s not the finest, I painted the words decent enough for people to be capable to read them. I bought special stickers, and scanned the top of my title cover and customized it in Adobe Reader 7 for the t-shirt. I spend some of my free time going around to buy a white T-Shirt. I explained the book in a quote for people to get interested and fascinated in. I connected this project to my spider man shirt by getting ideas on where pictures, logos were and how they were set that made them look so attention grabbing for the audience. I created a Puma sponsorship for the shirt and design the T-shirt on rough sketch on how I was going to construct it by as most  modern fashion look-alike. My project could have been way better if I had gone to a shirt making company to help make it, but I went around  searching for  shops in two days to get a shirt making shop but, inauspiciously I couldn’t because they would take too long to make the badges and stitches that I was going to have for my shirt. So I could have improved if I had a little more time to finish the project. I also checked that my project would be evaluated on high ranks. I think my shirt doesn’t how hard I worked, but if any one could look at  the planning  and how I went searching in malls for the supplies, then that would show my contribution and fair effort in the project, so this would mean that I would grade myself 85% out of 100% which makes me satisfied for the work I’ve done.
