WE had some students missing today. Because WE.

English
If you haven't broke in a form for the field trip tomorrow you still have a few brief hours left to do so.
In anticipation for spoken word poetry tomorrow, here's a little poem I wrote:

Quiz Monday for part 2 of Nineteen Eighty Four
If you ain't prepared don't even show up at my door.
Not trying to scare you or freak you out,
but showing up unprepared is not what English 12's about.
If you're 'over' Big Brother and hating this novel,
I can't make you like it by now and won't grovel.
It's almost all over; the final scene's left to play,
So hang in there: soon 'Eighty Four will go away.
But till then you've got questions to do for 'ten',

And don't forget those journals, ladies and gentlemen.

You need to finish Chapter 10 questions if you are in Block C.
Both blocks need to complete your journal #6.
Write a speech that could be delivered by the orator in 1984.  Bring out the shock effect of the war atrocities to ‘madden’ your audience, then, as the orator does ‘in mid sentence, without even breaking the syntax’ change the focus of your attack from one imaginary country to the other .  To sustain paranoia in continuous war, fears are constantly reinforced.  Find three incidents that occur during Hate Week that would increase paranoia among the populace.  

Social Justice

Complete the Self-Assessment for homework marks.
Read pages 23-29 on Human Trafficking in Zealous Love.
(Remember to bring in a laptop on Wednesday)
