Post-World-Café Reflections: Copy and paste these questions to post on your blog and answer them by Tuesday, 10/1 at midnight.  I'm looking forward to seeing what you think!

1. How did you feel about your discussion experience?  What did you enjoy and what was difficult?R: I really like the experience, dealing with studentes for other classes and with different nationalities. The only difficult was to sometimes understang differente accents and points of view.
2. Which letter from #5 on page 1 was hardest to decide in your group?                      a          b          c          d                                                                                                                  Why do you think it was the hardest? R: The hardest to decide was the question 5-d, because we have different views at the beginning of which of the characters were the most brave.
3. Was it easy or difficult to come to agreements with your groups?  What made it easy and what made it challenging? R: Not really,we talked a little and come to a regular answer. Tha challenge was only at in beginning to explain to others what you think.
4. Were you happy with your group’s definition of courage?  What would you like to change, if anything? No, i actually really like. Because we used parts of everybody point of view and made a groups definition. So, I am very happy about our definition.

Answers to Unit 2 Questions

1. Do you think humans will need to move to another planet?  Why or why not?
I think it's a possibility, because the mankind is using more and more resources, destroying plants and even the Ozone layer.So, if the scientists find a Earth-like planet, with almost the same resources, this can be the new 'Earth'. 

2. If it does happen that some humans move to another planet, would you volunteer to go?  Why or why not?
Yes. because it will be a great experience and a great step for mankind, to explore a new place and to have new opportunities.

3.  Read this article about people who have signed up to move to Mars: http://www.cnn.com/2013/08/09/tech/innovation/mars-one-applications/index.html  What is your reaction to this story?
I think it`s interesting and the people who sign up for this project are very brave.They put their own lives in risk to try something new, to have a new chance. Maybe, in many year from now, this people who want to go will be considered as people who colonized and tamed Mars and allowed great development to mankind; they maybe can be the 'Beautiful Souls' of the future. 

4. What do you think Ray Bradbury wanted the readers of "All Summer in a Day" to understand?  What did you think after reading this story?
To realize about how hard will be to live in another planet ( in this case, Venus); because he weather for example will be totally different from what we are used to , like the seasons taking years to vary.He made a literacy narrative, mainly from the perspective of children enjoying a few moments of spring( maybe a euphemism for happiness) in a rainy ( maybe euphemism for sadness). 
After reading this I think the author to speak , in a gentle way, that we have to preserve the Earth, because even being possible to live in another planets in the future, will be much more harder than the Earth.

Welcome!

Hi , 4B Reading!

My name is Daniel de Oliveira Pereira, thank you very much for stopping by my blog.
I am from Salvador,Bahia - Brazil. It's my first experience at being in a foreign country.I am 21 years old, I live off campus. I am living here in State College for almost one month and I already enjoyed very much live here. I never saw snow or such a cold weather before but I am getting used to it.
I am here to make the IECP course and next year to take one year of classes in my major field at Penn State (Mechanical Engineering).I went to the Engineering School a few times and the place is awsome! The structure is giant and a lot of laboratories!
