Since Friday, we've completed some exercises on nouns. We also finished reading and discussing "Harrison Bergeron"; along with this, students completed a set of questions and wrote a paragraph pertaining to the story. We also watched the short film adaptation "2081". Today, we went over pre-reading notes for Animal Farm and discusses pertinent historical information about the novel. Students were also given a chart to fill out information on dictatorship, democracy, communism, and fascism. They spent most of the period in the library researching information for this.
Reminders:
- Letters: OVERDUE
- "Harrison Bergeron" questions: due today
- 'Types of Government' charts: due tomorrow, Sept.15, 2015
