Reading Week 13: The Young Parrot

There are humans who are nice to animal and even after capturing them they let them go.  Just like that this story is about a parrot and field owner who grows rice on his field.

The king and queen who lived in the wood of silk cotton tree.  They had a son and he was the most beautiful parrot of all of them.  As king and queen they would not let their son do any work or not even let him go outside the forest.  Without any experience he would not know how this world works and what does humans do to capture them.  The time passes and the child parrot grew up to be the bigger and more beautiful than any parrot.  The king and queen grew old so it was their son responsibility to take care of his parents.  This was the same with human like the child will grew up and help his old parents when they are not able to work and they can only stay in the home.  I really like that he uses some of the human characteristic for parrots.

The child parrots now has the responsibility to take care of his parents so in order to feed them he goes outside the forest in the fields to get the rice.  Every time when he goes to get food he will eat as much as he can and then take the rest of the food with him to feed them.  One day going back to his home the parrot sees the nice fertile field and thinks that from tomorrow he will get the rice from that field.  The farmer's men saw that parrot are comes everyday to eat rice in their field.  He inform the owner and the owner decide to capture the parrot.  The farmer's men set up a trap and capture the beautiful and big parrot but all of his friends leaves him behind because they all got scared.  The owner ask him "why beautiful parrot that you come to my field to get rice?"  The beautiful parrot said, "My parents are old and not able to fly so it is my duty to feed them and your field are more beautiful and fertile." After hearing that the owner let him go.  The owner was really a nice person that he let go the parrot so he can fulfill his duty.  After that the parrot lived happy rest of his life.

Growth Mindset: Continually Improving My Project Story

Growth Mindset what your learning and how well your improving.  Whenever I write my project story I always write the way I think is right but if the teacher does not point out my mistake than there is no point in writing the story.  I make so many grammar mistake and I get that a lot I really hope that I can improve my grammar.  It is hard to improve grammar for someone like me who's English is not the first language but I am willing to learn.  I can learn so many things but it is not that learning will be over.  You learning new things throughout your life and that is what make people move forward. By pointing out the mistake people can learn and it is not bad thing that your mistake are being point out but actually good thing.  I will be learning and trying to improve my grammar mistake until I get it right and I will still have some grammar mistake but I can still improve.

Growth means you learn new things & Fixed means you applied on what you made mistake.

Week 12 Story: The Elephant and The Fishes

There was a fish and elephant.  An elephant came to the lake he was really in good mood.  He was thirsty so he started drinking water from the lake.  In that lake there was fishes who stayed and by accident the fish was sucked up by the elephant.  The other friend of fish was trying to fight that elephant and tell him to give their friend back.  The elephant understood that something big went inside his nose and he let the water go in the lake again.  He saw that there was a fish who was sucked up him and after that he apologized.  Fish really like him because he was not the type of elephant that they think he was.  After that the fish and elephant became really good friends and he would not let any harm come to those fish staying in the lake.  They did not know that they will able to live like this for their whole life.

After some time, the human started coming to lake and started fishing.  Elephant try to make them leave from the lake but his effort was not making difference.  Elephant also tried talking with fishes to run away whenever they see someone came to do fishing or hide so they would not get caught.  After listening to the elephant the fishes were hiding from the people who came to lake.  But the human start using the cool type of fish fly which will help them caught the fishes and it went exactly how they planned.  Elephant heard that many of his fish friends were taken away and he started observing what were the humans doing.  After learning their technique, he went to the lake to warn his fish friends.  The elephant told them to not go after the cool things that are new in the water because human uses them to catch you guys.  The fish listen to the elephant and stopped going after them.

After that the fisher man did not caught any fishes and then they stopped coming to the lake.  The fishes and the elephant lived happily ever after.

Author Note:

I combined the two story.  From both story I kept the similar concept but what I changed was the elephant helped fish this time instead of human.  The lake was filled up but made like the human came to hunt fish in their lake.  I did not want the elephant to die so made that changes in this story.

Elephant who protect the fish in the lake.

Week 12 Story: The Empty Lake

The Empty Lake was a really nice story.  It was protected by the King and the Queen who was straying in the lake.

The lake was filled with many fishes and in that lake there is a famous story that fishes gather to hear.  This concept was just like the human who gather to listen to the story of ancient history of Kings and Queens and their achievement.  The story that fishes listen to was of a king who has golden back and it is much more golden than anyone in the lake.  They say that he lighted the water when everything was dark.  It was like without their king they would not have been able to survive kind of like a hint that the king played important role in this story.  He was the main reason that fish can survive in the lake that they live in.  When they were in trouble because the water was drying up from lake and many of his friends were dying.


The King was praying the Rain Queen and Thunder King to help them save from the water being drying up.  Let the rain come and fill up this lake so that their friends don’t die and they don’t have to worry about lake.  The Rain Queen hear the request of the King and the angels were ready to drop the water.  The thunder sound from the sky was and started pouring rain which was slowly started filling up the lake.  All the fishes were happy in the lake but the king said it will not last us for another warm weather.  He prayed harder and the rain started pouring harder and the lake was fully filled up.  The rain queen said we heard your prayer and love for your people and from next time we will not let your lake dry up.  It was really nice for king to pray to god for the safety of all the fishes staying in his kingdom.

Week 12 Story: The Great Elephant

The Great Elephant was a nice story.  An animal who cares about human rather than himself was what I really like about this story.

The elephant who was staying in the desert by himself and he did not need anything or does not even have to leave desert for food or water.  He was really happy because he was handsome and nice and there was hardship for him that he has to face.  The elephant got whatever he need to live his life and nobody to tell him what to do.  He enjoying his moment and he heard the voices of mans.  Their voice was sounded unhappy and elephant walk in the direction that the voice was coming from.  Its naturally that you will go to voice that will sound unhappy and you think of helping someone.  That what happen with the elephant.  Once he reaches their he looked at the man and started pitying them.


It is the emotion that everyone feels this way and they will start pitying on them when they see someone is who is helpless.  The group of the people was hungry and did not had water and the elephant wanted to help them.  The elephant asks them why they were traveling and for what purpose they were traveling.  He asks the question what everyone generally asked and probably the reason for them to go through the desert.  They wanted food and water and did not had enough energy to make to another near town.  The elephant didn’t know how to help so he tells them to go the hill and soon after that the elephant went and jumped of the hill so they can eat him and gave them enough energy to make it to next town.  It was really sad that elephant did that to himself for the sake of the others.  He was really a nice elephant but I really did not like that he did that to himself.
