March 6

Today we went over some notes about the PEE chains from yesterday. Block A wrote their PEE chain paragraphs about Miss Hancock. Each block was asked 3 questions:
  1. Should life be fair?
  2. Should everyone be equal?
  3. What does equality mean to you?
Assignment:
  1. Read Harrison Bergeron.
  2. Write a brief answer to the question "Does the story reinforce or change your opinions about fairness and equality?" Why or how" (a few sentences)
  3. Write about the symbols in the story. Tell me what are the major symbols and what they represent. (can be in sentences or a chart)
  4. Which is the most effective symbol and why? Please use the PEE chain model to answer this question. A short paragraph 6-8 sentences will be fine.
There will be a little quiz on Harrison Bergeron tomorrow.
No Bonus Today.
