DAY 8

DAY 8

6 minute perusals--Quest: to learn one new thing

Looking at two famous Shakespeare Quotes:
        Hamlet's Soliloquoy
        Macbeth's Lament 

Work time for objectives or "New Immortals Trading Cards"

HW: Read Vonnegut's "Tomorrow, Tomorrow, and Tomorrow" and be prepread to discuss the following questions THUR:
        1. What elements of Vonnegut's "world" don't seem so sci-fi today?
        2. How would the "rules for Immortals" set up for the Swift's Struldbrugs made the situation for the Schwartz Family a little more tolerable?
        3. What is significant about the title Vonnegut chose for his story?
        4. While this is kind of a dark story it is also humorous, and I would contend, positive. Support or refute my claim.
        5. At what age would YOU stop taking anti-gerasone?

TRADING CARD GENERATOR (This doesn't really save that well- so make sure to have your info written somewhere else!!)
