Animal Farm: Getting Started

Dear Students,

This blog allows you to:

• enter your deep thoughts
• teach each other new vocabulary
• comment on each other's ideas

The first deep thought writing assignment is:
Animal Farm Ch. 1 What were your emotional and mental reactions to this chapter? What do you think the author is trying to teach us about life? What is he saying about society? Make text to text, text to self, and/or text to world connections. (1/2 page of writing)

• Text to Text = What other stories, books, movies, or songs does this story remind you of?
• Text to Self = What part of your life can you connect to this book?
• Text to World = Does this remind you of anything in history or in the news?

Impress me!
