In Into the Wild, Christopher McCandless gives up many of his possessions in pursuit of freedom and meaningful experiences. If you had to simplify your life and keep only a few important possessions, what would you keep and why? What would be hardest to leave behind?

 I would probably keep things like my phone and other things that I use often like a TV or car. If I had to survive with these items like McCandless does I would opt for more essential items like water, portable shelter like a tent, something to hunt and fish with, and something to make fire or cook with. I was absent today but I saw  that we are on chapter 4 of the book and we did a Writeable today.

People sometimes feel the need to step away from their normal routines or environments in order to better understand themselves. Describe a time when you needed distance from a situation, place, or group of people in order to think more clearly or gain perspective. What did that experience teach you about yourself?

 I once decided to take a week and live with a buddy of mine. This upset my parent but it gave me time to reflect on the state of my relationship with my parents. I was absent today but i know we read more of the book.

After reading Chapter 1 of Into the Wild, consider your first impression of Christopher McCandless. Based solely on the events and details presented in this opening chapter, do you believe McCandless truly understood the risks he was taking when he entered the Alaskan wilderness? Why or why not?

 After reading the first chapter of the book Christopher McCandless seems very foolish and egotistical. When he is met with someone more knowledgeable about living off the land he rejects his knowledge and offers for help. This to me seems like he was trying to fail because he is also described as smart. Today we red the first chapter of a book that we will be reading for 3 weeks. This helped me get a first impression of a book that we will be reading.

Today you worked on creating your Vocabulary Digital Cards in Adobe Express. In one well-developed paragraph, reflect on the assignment by explaining which vocabulary word was easiest for you to understand, which word was most challenging, and how creating your own sentence and selecting an image helped strengthen your understanding of the vocabulary. Use specific examples from your work.

 I was absent so i do not know how to answer this question.
