I am taking a liberal arts class apart from Nursing, I had to take it because of scholarships related to amount of credits per semester.. Anyway.. For this assignment I have to "name the activity" I have emailed my teacher several times and called her once. IT is an online course.. but she seems pissy with me. saying she has been teaching this for 10 years and no one has every questioned this..

Here is the two paragraphs she gave me. I Have to name the activity.. I have no concept what activity she is talking about, not is anything even remotely related to this in the book..

What do you think it is.. Of course my friends in nursing school are like me.. we have lost our abilitiy to think abstractly

1. First, you arrange things into different groups, depending on their color and texture. If there is not much to do, one pile should be sufficient. If you lack the necessary equipment, you must go somewhere else. It is better to do a few things than too many. Complications can arise if all direction are not followed, and a mistake can be expensive. At first, the whole procedure may seem difficult, but soon it will become just another fact of life. You can get caught up, never ahead, on this task.

2. A seashore is a better place than the street. At the start, it is better to run than walk. You may have to try several times. It takes some skill, but it is easy to learn. Even young children can enjoy it. Once successful, complications are minimal. Birds seldom get too close. Too many people doing the same thing can cause problems, as one needs lots of room. If there are no strong conditions or mishaps, it can be very peaceful. A rock can serve as an anchor, but if things break loose from it, you will not get a second chance.


Thanks for any help

Thanks so much.. Sorry for the double post.. I didn't realize it went though the first time. I tried to correct it but was not able to.

You guys.. I have been working on this for so long. I tried so hard to put it in a formula, or something.. I broke down each sentence, Tried to figure it out, I looked for formulas, reread the chapter.. I was so clueless...

I guess this is what happends to my brain when I do nothing but concrete infomation for years..I need to start thinking more abstractly at least to get through this course.. I called my teacher almost in tears, telling her I am an A student and I don't have a clue what she is talking about. LOL..She must think I am a jerk. Ha

I safely submitted the assignment.. I will let you know your grade. HA...

Thanks again,

Jennifer

I have to say Jennifer, I am with you. I didn't have a clue on the first one and probably wouldn't have on the second one but saw Julies response before I read it. After I read the answers I just thought to myself, well yeah that makes sense. My brain doesn't work that way.
