1984 Packet

Here it is...the long awaited and digitized 1984 packet. If you have forgotten the questions you needed to review for this book, and for your upcoming quizzes, please look here.

I will be giving you a heads up to some extra credit questions here, so make sure you check back often for hints, and links to neat propaganda related (and unrelated) to the dystopian world of 1984.

Since we are being taken from class next week because of the Science PSSA's our schedule may be interrupted. You are still responsible for the reading...

Class Calendar

Alright students, the end of the year is almost here. It's time to get to work on reading the novel. The way this class will operate for the next four weeks will be different than it has prior to our reading of 1984. I have attached the calendars here: April and May (the same ones that I handed out to you) so you ALWAYS know what to expect next!

If you have any questions, you can always reply to this post.
