Agenda 12/11 CLASS ONLINE

StudySync read/write assignment titled "Book Burning in Nazi Germany" – Please be sure to follow the directions, annotate thoroughly and develop your responses.

Read and annotate Fahrenheit 451 to page 155. If you are part of our Luminescent Google Community, feel free to post comments and questions there about the reading! This can take the place of our 4 corner conversations if you get stuck in the reading.
*If you don't have access to the Google community, text me at my Google Voice number (707) 595-0265 and I'll invite you.


Final Exam – What's going to be on the test?
Your final exam will consist of 2 parts.

Hour 1: Scantron exam with questions about vocabulary lists 1-7 (not every word will appear on the exam), character identification and specific questions about F451.

Hour 2: Build a 3 dimensional metaphor bringing one of Ray Bradbury's metaphors to life. Prior to the exam you will want to select a compelling metaphor (direct comparison NOT using like or as) and select materials to use to create this metaphor (cardboard, popsicle sticks, toothpicks, newspaper, magazines, straws, glue...anything you might find around your home is fine!). DO NOT build this at home and bring it in. You need to construct it in the actual final during the second hour!

I'll be online all day today (if my Internet doesn't cut out), so you can G-chat with me or we can meet via Google hangout if you have questions about the lesson or the final exam.
