Ah...8:35 and I'm finally getting a chance to write the blog. Late cross country meet. Won't be anything huge tonight.
Be sure you come to class tomorrow with a couple options for your Fairy Tale-Allegory assignment (FTAA for short). We'll identify your story for you tomorrow, so you can start putting together your information. Remember: Be insightful. Should be 25 points for everyone if done correctly. And we could all use those 25 points. Just to clarify, these are not extra credit points. You will receive a score out of 25. If you were absent today, be sure to see me about this ASAP.
Lot of info on the Russian Revolution tomorrow. It's important stuff for you to know so that you can identify the allegorical elements of Animal Farm. As you read you'll be identifying and fleshing out the allegory. At the same time, I want you thinking about its relevance to modern day. Is the Animal Farm allegory still relevant today? The book will be in your hands tomorrow.
Remember euphemisms are basically nicer ways to say potentially offensive things. Get those notes if you were absent.
See you soon.
