1. We have learned Spider, Dragon, Rat and Cat. Which did you prefer and why? I preferred Cat, as I find the culture most interesting, also having had a kitten I have found it the most usual so far

2. Have you attempted to apply your lessons in this class in your dealings with animals in the world? Briefly discuss what you did and the results. If you have not, explain a situation in which it might be beneficial. As mentioned above having learnt I have feel I have been able to interact with my kitten and understand better what it wants. For example in the mornings I used to be able to understand whether he was meowing for food or because he needed to pee.

Part Two: Translation
Translate these sentences into creature languages to the best of your ability:
a. SPIDER -- "A stitch in time saves nine."- //A// stitch //on time helps a number//
b. DRAGON -- "Necessity is the mother of all invention."//something that is needed is the parent of things that are created
c. RAT -- "Sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me." //branches and boulders will break my skeletone, but speech or writing will not squish me//
d. CAT -- "All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy." //All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy//
