Want Ad. Reflection

The Want Ad. is an assignment when you pretend to be Christopher Columbus and write a flyer to recruit his sailors for the first trip across the Atlantic Ocean. The Want Ad. #1is the first draft. I used a website called wordle to improve my word choice. I pasted the whole writing into the website then a picture appears. It shows that which word is used alot in bigger letter than other words. Then I tried to change the word for the writing base on wordle. After that, I post the second writing and make a second wordle to compare two writings. I think the 2nd one is better. But the word sailor I can’t change because I can’t find another word for it.

Want Ad. #2

Are You Ready To Make History My sailors?

I am Christopher Columbus and I just received the permission from Queen Isabella to start a voyage out on the west of Spain hoping to reach China on that way. We want to be the first to discover a better way to China. People may say we will fall of the earth when we go too far but you will not know if you do not try right? You will receive gold and treasure from the kings and will be remembered as one of the best group of sailors in the history. All of my sailors need to be brave, patient, strong, healthy, and active. I will be looking for an experienced sailor who is responsible and is a good leader to become a leader of the group. This person will be around 40 to 50 years old. My ship will not be able to run without any sailors so my crew will are require to be strong, healthy, easygoing, obeying, active and the most important thing is braveness. You will have to go through tests and competition because I need the best crew as possible. Good Luck! I hope to see you soon and we will go through the hard test across the ocean and set a new record that everyone will remember. You will receive a lot of valuable prices.
