"The Dangerous Game" Plot Diagram

Plot Lesson

"The Most Dangerous Game" Before You Read Fascinating Villain Paragraph


My favorite villain is from the movie "Batman the Dark Knight." The character's name is Joker. This villain is intelligent, funny, and so insane he totally fits the villain character. Another words his role in the movie as a clown and a bad guy was totally full-filled. All of his schemes were planned out perfectly and done with precise measurements. Not only is the Joker evil but when he speaks and is in the act of a scheme he laughs and jokes and also has fun. All of Jokers tactics and plans are very intelligent and he is a great villain.

Portfolio - Improvement


Over the past two years I have made many improvements in my social and academic life. I have been taught many rules within grammar that I was not aware of before. Since I have been in high school I have also been taught greater vocabulary which helps me write better. I have always been able to read well, but since I have attended S.P.A. it has gotten better. I am able to read more sufficiently and with emotion, rather than before when I was shy. Another thing that I have improved is my speaking skills. I have done many exercises. For example, ten second sound off and we do that almost every day. This helps my public speaking and it helps my insecurity of speaking aloud. My group-working skills before high school were a bit different because as years went on I learned to strive. And I learned to work as a team and give other people chances to strive. One more thing high school has impacted for the past two years is my tech. skills. Technology was not my main focus and/or it wasn’t available where I lived. In elementary school I was the student that would help the other kids with their computer games and teaching them how to turn it on and what not. Although these are the basics I believe that this is why technology comes easy for me to understand. I am glad high school is offering such great knowledge on such a topic that will affect us our whole life. Technology is the future. I have obviously changed over the past two years, but all these improvements I totally give credit to S.P.A.

Portfolio - Future


My future is a blur of goals, dreams and needs. All I want is success for my family and me. If I’m not successful my family won’t be. I understand that money does not make the world go round but it certainly does make life easier. I was told to strive, strive in life. But I believe if I can eliminate as much dilemmas and obstacles as possible, why not? If my life can be easier then why not avoid those problems and focus on the real ones that impact my life. For example, money. I can be happy without money, but I think money can make me even happier. This is so because then my blood family will have money, and my own wife and kids will have money. It won’t be an issue and if there ever is an issue I’d rather be because something happened in life that was unfortunate only because it is only normal for life to do so. What I want is a future in something I am interested in, make great money, and have extra hobbies on the side. It is very complicated to see such a successful future that consists of fame, wealth and fun. I want to be known for the good I do. I want my family’s life to be easy. I want a lot so it’s going to take a lot to get there.

Playwrights Project Play Performance Paragraph


During the performances I felt astonished. Almost inspired but sympathetic. The one word that describes how I felt was touched. One of the most amazing stories I heard was Tierra's playwright. It was sad and depressing. Or when I heard mine, although I have not experienced these things, I realized how heart-braking it must be to live such an unfortunate life. And how Destiny's playwright impacted other viewers in the audience just shows how real these things are. Everybody has their story and once you put it into a movie, book, or in this case a play it reveals the depth of its reality. Everyone in this place has had it bad, but always know that someone else had it worse.

End of Year Reflection – Greatest High School Achievement


My greatest high school achievement is achieving a 4.0 in third quarter. I tried so hard and I actually succeeded. This is a great example that what ever you put your mind to you can do. I devoted my time, effort and energy into my academics and it paid off, literally. Especially since everyone who got a 4.0 received $200.00. When I attended the awards ceremony I wasn't sure if I was going to receive an award for a 4.0. I was still second guessing my grade in one class. I went to the auditorium where they were holding the ceremony and I was nervous. When they announced my name I knew that I achieved my goal. I was excited and happy. Now I need to continue doing so.
