WWI Quiz
Take a quiz on WWI! If you were absent, I will be doing makeups on WEDNESDAY, 9/18 after school.
See the handout linked above for instructions on completing your seminar reflection. Necessary information is linked below.
Major Seminar Questions:
- What is the truth of war the author is trying to communicate in AQotWF?
- Does the truth of war change over the course of this novel?
- Is this an anti-war novel? Why/why not?
- In chapter 2, why do the men react so strongly to the deaths of the horses, and ignore the deaths of men? What does this say to you about the effects of war?
- Chapter 9 is a turning point in the book. What crucial realization does Paul have in this chapter? How does this change his "truth?"
- Why does Paul react so negatively to going on leave?
- How has reading this book changed your perception of war? Explain.
Lori's Choice Question:
Write a 1 paragraph description of the death scene in chapter 9 through the eyes of Gerard. Write the same scene, from the French man's perspective. Use your creative writing talents here!
Challenge Extension Question:
Choose one of the themes you annotated in your book. In one paragraph, discuss what the theme is, and how it is developed over the course of the book.
SEMINAR MAKEUP
ONLY DO THIS IF YOU WERE ABSENT! Choose two questions from the list of Major Seminar Questions above. Write two paragraphs in response to each of the questions. Make sure you are supporting your responses with evidence and quotes from the text of AQotWF.
