Tuesday
1. The character most transformed the most through out was the character Tod. He was effected the most cause hes the only one that struggled to sign the paper against Mr. Keating. He knew that it wasn't the teachers fault and he tried to tell him at the end of the movie. At first he thought Mr Keating was weird and grew to like him and change.
2. The kid that does not change through out the whole movie is the kid cameron. He is the first to snitch on Mr keating. Mr keating does not sway on him or influence him at all actually the guys grew to hate him towards the end of the movie.
3. Mr keating does not change through out the movie he stays the same. Even as he leaves he doesn't try to explain what he did. He wanted everyone to think for themselves and not be confined by society.

1. The most influential person i have ever had was probably one of my football coaches because they pushed beyond what i could go.
2. I don't really look at poetry as that when we read it its just like poetry.
3. I do agree sometimes you have to look at life in a different perspective. Life has different meanings and sometimes we need to get up on a desk to see the difference.
4. What he means is to leave your mark on the world not to be defined by society. Not be like every other normal person in the world.

- It is set a dead poet society at a college for all guys.
- The four pillars at the academy are tradition, honor, discipline and excellence.
- The students say they are Travesty, Horror, Decadence, Excrement
- He takes the boys out in the hallway and tells them that they are powerful individual.
- Mr. Keating wants the boys to learn to think for themselves.
- The Dead Poet Society was a secret literary club for students at Welton Academy.
- The symbolism of the boys going to the cave is them going out in secret symbolizing its a secret club.
- Stood on his desk and told the boys when they stand on their desks they will view things in a different way.
- There is always meaning to what someone is and something behind that that explains what they are and why.
- He went into the woods because he wanted to live freely and wanted to be on his own. He wanted the freedom of nature.
- His philosophy of sports is that no one sport is better.
- He makes him get up in front of the close his eyes and tricks him into saying the poem that comes from his mind.
- It was choosen cause the dead poet suicide is dead and so is the music he was playing.
- They were chosen over other because some have other significant to the movie then others do.
- I think the statement is highly true i think it was a risky decision to make.
- I do think charlie is to daring he puts everyone at risks. He think that hes doing good by it but he really just put them at risk.
- I do not think mr keating is a bad influence he is just telling the boys to have a open mind and not be defined by society. That they should do whatever makes them happy not be defined by what other expectations are.
- What mr Keating does well as a leader he makes the guys think for themselves and not be defined as in like a book. His downfalls is he can do all that without pushing the limits to hard.
- The affect of people when they were on their def-fiances is someone ends up killing himself cause of it. It wasn't mr keatings fault at all it was his dads but he had a small part.
- I think that niels father was to blame for his death he pushed him not push he forced him to do something that doesn't make him happy.
- I honestly think mr keating had no effect on him i think his dad would had pushed him either way and it would have ended the same.
- I think Charlie is the most daring by far he pushed the limits to expulsion and that was the most daring.
- Tod did sign the paper because at the end of the movie he was telling Mr Keating he was sorry that they forced him to.
- I think mr keating will be able to get another job or he will go back home first.
- I think the most important them was academic pressure because all of their parents were on their butts about it. The school was so strict limiting them to things. They actually stayed at the school that's an example of how strict the are.
- I think differently about poetry now because it has more meaning then just being boring. It can be used on multiple such such as getting a girl to like you or catching the attention of someone.
- The best piece of poetry i liked best is when the guy wouldn't leave the girls school he liked and said his poem by heart. I think he had an effect on her after that cause it was pretty good.
