(Updated) They Gave their Lives so You could Enjoy Yours: Nov. 11

Eng 12

Oh, please don't let me interrupt you from writing your 1984 Essay. We both know that is due Tuesday.

Alicia requested the rubric for this essay. HERE it is for anybody else who is interested. Thanks, Alicia.

AAAlso, Alicia shared a comic with me that I thought must be shared with all of you. It compares 1984 with Brave New World. In the past I have assigned 'Brave' in a Lit Circle. Perhaps you will read it yourselves one day. You needn't read it to enjoy and understand the COMIC though.

Narrative Essay 'Re-Vision'

Ban the 'Duck Face'

English 12

Quiz tomorrow 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 try to grovel.
It's almost all over; the final scene's left to play,
So hang in there 'cuz soon 'Eighty Four will go away.
But till then you've got chapters nine and then ten,
And don't forget your questions, ladies and gentlemen.
