Descriptive Language

Century Video Notes:
Finish watching film about Hitler's rise to power, finish film notes.

Starter #6:

  1. Based on your Rise of the Dictators project and the movie we watched, what kind of economic and political situations are more likely to produce a dictator?  Why?
  2. Why was Hitler an attractive leader to Germans in the 1930s?  
    • This could be in the form of a paragraph, an outline, or a bullet-pointed list
    • Make sure you have reasons that relate to the context, and to Hitler as an individual
Descriptive Language:
Complete descriptive language activity that asks you to analyze and then imitate Vonnegut's writing style.  See handout for detailed instructions.  If you are absent, handout is linked in the Student Resources section of my DP.

Slaughterhouse Five: Reading Time
Use the rest of class to read and annotated through chapter 6.  If you've already read this far, read ahead, or go back and catch up on your annotations.  If you're behind, this is your chance to catch up!

HOMEWORK:
Read and annotate through chapter 6.  I will be checking annotations on FRIDAY, at the start of class, so make sure you're caught up with them.
