Hem: Who denies and resists change as he fears it will lead to something worse. 4. Haw: Who learns to adapt in time when he sees changing can lead to something better.

ANS 4: Cheese is a metaphor for what you want to have in life-whether it is a good job, a loving relationship, money or a possession, health or spiritual peace of mind.
ANS 5: Maze is where we look for what we want- the organisation we work in, or the family or community we live in.
ANS 6: The best reaction to change was shown by Sniff and Scurry, they had already analysed the situation that the ‘cheese’ was about to finish so they decided to search for cheese before the situation worsens, sniff got to know about the change first and scurry blindly trusted sniff and immediately came into action and found new place for ‘cheese’ which was better than the previous one. Whereas Initially Hem and Haw’s confidence grew into arrogance of success so they didn’t even notice the change happening. When the change happened Hem panicked and didn’t want to deal with what was facing him and was reluctant to change. Whereas Haw was patient and decided to move with the change and find ‘cheese’.

    This is a silly book that has the farm animals demanding rights from the poor farmer or they will go on strike. Click, Clack, Moo is a terrific coordinating book to many different lessons. Although communication and how we communicate is a fabulous was to start. By discussing with the students how we as humans communicate and comparing to how animals communicate they can relate to the differences. The book also offers the opportunity to hit upon a first grade standard of identifying basic similarities in and differences between two texts on the same topic (LAFS.1.RI.3.9). This book allows the teacher to tie together pets, animals and people for a comprehensive lesson that will increase a student’s vocabulary and background knowledge. Background…

    The poem Feliks Skrzynecki addresses several profound values and assumptions associated with immigration and belonging. One particularly striking value is the growing disparity between father and son – Feliks Skrzynecki and the poet, Peter Skrzynecki – and the concerns regarding their relationship. Throughout the poem, Peter, speaking from personal experiences, speaks for both his own and his father’s sense of self and belonging, specifically contrasting their different perspectives. Feliks loves his Polish culture, and will probably never change passions towards his environment - Australia: “kept pace only with the Joneses/ of his own mind’s making.” We later develop an understanding of his “mind’s making” in the next line: “Loved his garden like an only child.” This garden is a reflection of his past culture; the simile further highlight’s Feliks’ sense of belonging for this culture. Also, the particular diction “only child” stresses Feliks’ connection with his garden as opposed to his connection with Peter, who was Feliks’ one (adopted) son. Peter, instead of sharing his father’s view of polish customs, he feels excluded and could never relate to his father’s polish culture and friends: “His Polish friends/ always shook hands too violently... That formal address/ I never got used to.” Part of this could have come from the fact that he had grown up in Australia, away from the “farms where paddocks flowered / with corn and wheat...” (Poland) – The place where his father had grown up. Perhaps the phrase “Happy as I have never been” is the final turning point between Peter and Feliks. This phrase ultimately emphasises the distinction between Peter and Feliks, in which, ironically, one had led a harsh life full of work in the old traditional culture, whilst the other was far more fortunate in the new Australian society.…

    The structure of a play shows the overall organization of a story and is very important to help with the understanding of the play itself. The structure is the overall foundation of a story and helps lead the reader towards very important portions of the play. A reader is allowed to maintain a fluid and easy understanding of the play as the story moves on towards the conclusion. Without having a solid foundation the story will not be able to continue and flow correctly. A great example of structure is in “Trifles” by Susan Glaspelli, in which we begin the story by being introduced to the main characters to help unfold a mystery.…

    As I sat in the classroom for this my first module, my anticipation was high while still not knowing for sure what I would take away from the session. Hereclitus said that change is a constant and at this stage in my life, I have to agree. Given the inevitability of change, I cannot deny the value of understanding its nature and managing the process of transition. I have experienced enough instances of change to have learned that there are two general outcomes: success or loss. I am able to admit too, that while it may be easier to observe change and its outer effects, I am less in touch with the effects of change on the inside – myself and other individuals included.…
