I like sound mapping and free writes in the park because I get to be alone, and because it’s quiet.  But sometimes I see/hear different things.

Usually, I’m really attached to my friends when we do something. I’m always with them and I don’t do many things alone. I think that I want Ms. Lanaway to take us outside more. At the start of the year, I didn’t like going outside at all, but now I actually really like it. It’s really different because most teachers just give you worksheets and tests to do. In this class, we do most things outside.

I like nature better than the city. Although I don’t like everything in nature, for example, I still hate bugs, especially spiders. The best thing about sound mapping is watching and listening to different things. I heard the sky train so many times it started to get annoying, but when I heard the birds chirping and the wind blowing the leaves, it made me feel happy. The next time I go somewhere far away from traffic in the forest, I’m going to try to do the sound mapping. Then, I’m going to compare the two places of sound mapping and fond the differences! I wonder if it will be very different.

What I like about sound mapping and free write in the park is you can sit and

listen to the nature, and I can’t believe that their so many sounds out there. First

I’m not comfortable but on the second day I get comfortable. I can also learn

about nature and I can also hear some new sounds that I’ve never heard before.

And lastly I can concentrate doing my work instead talking to someone. And those

Are my good reason why I like sound mapping and free writes.

What I like about sound mapping and free writs. I like them because it takes work time out and we get to sit outside with nature, I like the fresh air. It is nice to feel the wind blow and feel the grass. I like how we are outside and not doing LA inside, I also like being out in the sun. I like to do sound mapping but we don’t get a lot of time to draw and sound map.

What I like about sound mapping and free writes. First of all I like sound mapping and free writes because we don’t have to sit indoors and do work every time, and it’s easier than doing worksheets indoors. Also it calms me down and it’s colder outside than inside, and I don’t have to listen to Ms. Lanaway talk about lessons.

Second I like doing sound mapping and free writes because it’s sort of cool being outside and just listening to things, not all the things sound good but it allows you to think straight without distractions like people talking, but the construction and the sky train still makes me lose my thinking sometimes.

Third I can forget all the bad times and stop stressing about after school homework, class gossip, tomorrow, and basketball. Which feels really nice to stop stressing about everything and take a break. Those are the reasons I like sound mapping and free writes.

I liked 3 things about sound mapping that we did.

The first thing I liked about sound mapping is that we aren’t spending a lot of time inside and on computers and instead we are listening to nature and when I hate to hear the cars and technology that disrupts the sound of nature.

Second of all I like how we have to be separated to different spots so we try to hear sounds from different perspectives. So sometimes have different thing written down because we are in different places. And also we feel different because some places has more shade than others and some people feel more wind than others.

The last thing is that I loved is that when it was very quiet I could focus better because I liked locked myself in focus mode than I can hear almost anything that makes a noise. But since my spot is so close to the traffic usually I can only hear the traffic, and also because the cars are very loud.

I like sound mapping because I can listen to the sounds and it might sound like music if you listen   carefully and I don’t have to sit in class all day. I like sitting alone and I can hear birds, crows and I can think and see the blue sky and it makes me calm I can feel the wind passing by I can see trees moving I can see bees get honey if I went to the forest and did this I will see bunnies fish birds crows nature. I like free writing because I write my feeling thoughts and I can write word it make me calm and I won’t be uncomfortable to nature.

Why I enjoy free writing and sound mapping

Why I enjoy free writing outside is because you’re very calm and you think of lots of wonderful things to write down in your eco journal.

Another reason why I enjoy free writing is whatever pops up in your head you can write it down.  How free writing and sound mapping changes me. It makes me feel calm and it makes me want to do random acts of kindness. And when I did my sound mapping I saw the world as a better place and how there is so much nature around us. I think sound mapping is a great thing especially if you’re disconnected to nature and more into computers, phones and iPads. And if that is true you should try sound mapping it’s going to make you realize how fun it is outside and it will make you more active because Wi-Fi ruins your life time you have to experience  how life is not how to be on your phone for the whole day. Free writing is a nice thing to do for days when you don’t have any Wi-Fi or you electricity power has shut down you can do free writing and sound mapping because you have nothing to do that’s why free writing and sound mapping is a awesome thing to do for me.

If I have three minutes to pack and evacuate, the special items I would bring are…

I would bring a my little pink bunny wallet, in it there are not that much money in there, but it is very important to me, I had when I was young, my grandpa bought it for me when I was 5 years old, it was my very first wallet. Every time I look at it, it feels like the first I was looking at it, I can feel the joy and the happiness.

I would also bring my two stuffed animal, one is a bunny, one is a dolphin, my mom bought the dolphin for me and my dad bought the bunny for me, they are both really cute. My dad bought the bunny for me in china last summer, and my mom bought the dolphin for me when I first came here. I can still remember when I first got those stuffed animal.

The last thing I would bring is my little lock box and the two keys, it is just a normal box that could be locked but in it, there is all my favorite things like my beautiful stickers, and my little jewelry.

They are so special to me that I would never forget, and I would never leave them or through them away.

If had 3 min excavate and pack up I would bring something special like my dog because it is the first dog I ever had and I can’t replace because I love my dog so much my dog is in India so I miss my dog his name is Tommy he is the best dog.
