april 20 w online meeting #21

for our MOM: [Inhale deeply. When you exhale, say "hmmmm..." like you're being really thoughtful.]

JOURNAL TOPIC: [today's tunes: "Changes" by David Bowie]
Is your personality today the same as when you were a little kid? (Hint: I hope not!) Can you think of a moment in your life when you learned or experienced something that led you to change?  What happened? How did it change you? Can you relate this to what you see in Montag's character as we read Fahrenheit 451?

-OR-

You can use your journal simply to write about life and your experiences in these unusual, challenging times.

AGENDA:
1. MOM
2. Journal
3. Our meeting
4. Please remember to read the essay I wrote (the link is in yesterday's post)


POST: (title: AS WE GROW, WE CHANGE) In the novel Fahrenheit 451, some of the characters are static and some are dynamic.  What makes a character dynamic?  Choose a dynamic character from Fahrenheit 451.  Explain at least three ways this character changes throughout the book and be prepared to support your points with textual evidence (such as a quote or an event in the plot).  Why does this character change?  How does this character's evolution reflect the overall theme and tone of the book?  *NOTE: Please remember to include at least five lit terms in your analysis of the text.
