The Most Dangerous Games

I believe Rainsford values liberty, for three reasons. For one, he kills people. He killed two people including a dog. Those people include Ivan and Zarroff. econdly, he seemed to, in a way; succeed in every task that leads up to these three deaths. His first trap was the tree trap, when killed Ivan. His second trap was when he put the pointy sticks in the quick sand and killed the dog. Furthermore, it seems that Rainsford doens't care much about anything. He doesn't care about animals. He says, "They have no understanding". In addition, he sleeps soundly on Zarroff's bed after killing him. In conclusion, Rainsford kills people along with dogs, he succeeds at many things, and doesn't seem to care. This is why I believe Rainsford values liberty.

Another week of Service Learning

This week we decided which places we would go to, so that we could hand out our brochures. We assigned those places to people who were going to hand the brochures. We are still continuing to finish up the business cards.

Reflection on Service Learning

In service learning yesterday, we split up into two groups, lead and child safety. We discussed both of our topics and explained the problem of the two. I left early, so I don't know what happened afterwards.

There were opinions such as brochures, ads, making a dvd, etc. We also came up with different topics related to ours, such as smoke detectors, child safety, radon, and carbon monoxide.

Service Learning



So far in service learning, I haven't done anything. I plan on volunteering at Einstein Hospital and help nurses. I planed on volunteering at Einstein for about 7 hours. The reason why i want to volunteer at Einstein Hospital is because, that is the hospital that my aunts father was in when he had cancer. He is now deceased. Then I was thinking about volunteering at a nursing home that a friend of mine works at. He said that on the third floor there are people who really need more help then others. There are also people on the third floor of the nursing home who are in wheelchairs and need help going to the bathroom.
