Blog for Week 11/12/15 - Theme Development - I.Q

I.Q Roland Smith

Prompt: Theme Development

So far we have step - siblings Angela and Quest the children of Roger Tucker (Angela's dad) and Balze Munoz (Quest's mother) who had just gotten married. The kids and Rockstar parents have to take a long tour on a motor coach together as a family for the first time. Out of the blue the family comes across a man named Tyrone Boone that offers to fix their broken down motor coach. Why and how did he come across this family? We will just have to wait and see.

I think friendship is a really good theme for this story because it seems like Angela and Quest get along pretty well. For two totally different people who come from totally different backgrounds seem to get along well. I think this friendship will further the plot and become more special than ever.

I also think a that mystery can be a possible theme for this story because I am pretty sure that Tyrone Boone plays sort of a spy role in this story, he seems very suspicious and in the back of the boom it did mention "Step-siblings Q ( Quest and Angela are being thrust into the work of the U.S. Secret Services" and "Angela realizes that she's being followed". I was thinking that maybe Tyrone Boone maybe has something to do with being in the U.S. Secret Services or some kind of spy work to maybe destroy this family. Also the first page of the book there are a few people talking discussing on how there watching a couple and two children. Then you see these same exact men who I think are trying to follow the family's motor coach and then have their car get stolen (then we go back to Angela, Quest, and their parents). I also think those men could be spies also and will create a mystery tone to the story.

1 Quarter Refection

      Have my blogs been progressing since August. I should say yeah, my blogs have been getting better. I know for certain that they are way better last year. Also we have been going over a lot of grammar this past quarter so I have been trying to be carful with that stuff lately. Other than trying to perfect my grammar I think I'm really good at blogging for assigned blogs and will probably get better and better.

      Lets see, how my research skills improved. Well, I really can't say they have improved only because The Banned Books research is the only thing we did this year and the only researching I have done. We never really did to much research last year or ever. I think that my researching skills are "okay", but of course like anything I create or make could use some improvement

      What have I learned about the world? This is why I love that we are doing AoW this year. We learn so much on what's going on in the world and how it's effecting our economy or other countries economy. I have recently learned about the Syrian refuges and am hearing more and more things about it every day. I learned about the shootings in Oregon and how Obama is serious about this problem. I also like to annotate which is good because you do a lot of annotating on your article.
