Friday, November 21st

Introduction to our Utopia/Dystopia Unit. We will be reading "There Will Come Soft Rains," by Ray Bradbury, Anthem, by Ayn Rand, and watching The Hunger Games.

Today in English 9:
  • Make a list of the problems you are aware of in our society.
    • Students will share out
  • We will listen to John Lennon's "Imagine" and discuss his definition of an ideal world.
  • Students will create their own description of an ideal society and brainstorm what the possible consequences of implementing those ideas could be.
  • Later we will use these ideas to create our own Utopia/Dystopia.
HW: Final Drafts Due Monday!
