Intrapersonal Assignment

Hi friends,

It’s my second post in a day. This time, it is also related to Home Learning. The assignment is to write an article out pertaining to my best intelligence, which is Intrapersonal. Attached below are the assignments.

Intrapersonal [select one]

a. Write a journal entry from the point of view of one of the characters in Flowers for
Algernon.The title of your journal is Journal according to…
b. Who would you want to be friends with in the Flowers for Algernon. Explain your choice.
I have chosen to do assignment B.

I would like to make friends with Miss Kinnian.

Firstly, Miss Kinnian is a supportive teacher. Miss Kinnian is supportive in a way that she encourages Charlie by telling him he was the best pupil in her class. The evidence used to support this is this quote, “They said Miss Kinnian told that I was her best pupil in the adult night school because I tried the hardest and I really wanted to learn.” Having a supportive friend would always support you in good decisions that you make, and help to change your opinion on changing your mind. Besides, a supportive friend would always try to encourage you when you have weaknesses to make you feel better or when you are feeling down. The encouragement from a supportive friend could lift your feelings and could also motivate you to do something better or out of the blue.

Besides, she is a dedicated teacher as she teaches Charlie most of the stuff whenever. She still taught him after the operation although he would become clever. Having a dedicated friend would never lie to you and be “loyal” to you in a way that the friend would not tease you, joke about you behind your back. Besides, in an example scenario, when doing a project and you are beginning to drift away from the topic, having a dedicated friend who will always concentrate on the task will remind you to get back on the topic.

Miss Kinnian is also outspoken and strong-willed as she stands up for what is right and not what is always the easy way out. When the doctors want to continue experimentation on Charlie, she stands up for him by saying that he is not an animal and deserves to be treated like a human being. Having an outspoken and strong-willed friend would speak up for me in any circumstances when you are treated unfairly or being bullied or in any other scenario. Having a strong-willed friend would help you in an example scenario, like when you and your friend are doing a project and there are problems, a strong-willed friend would never give up and would also encourage you to do the same as him/her.

Lastly, Miss Kinnian is a caring and kind teacher. She went to the laboratory at times to visit Charlie ad continued to teach him even after the operation although he was clever. Having a caring and kind friend would never leave you in the lurch when you are in times of help. Besides, a kind friend would try their best in all circumstances to assist you in any problems that you encounter. A caring friend would encourage you when you are feeling down, trying their best to lift your feelings. In an example scenario, a caring friend would also call you when you are sick.

That’s for the day!

Cheers,
Kervin
